I am doing a research paper for my college English class. Our job is to observe and write about a specific group of people, so I chose the 4chan community. Why I chose 4chan? My professor wanted unique subjects she's never heard about. So I am here for your help and in hopes some of my questions may be answered.

1. What is your age and what is the major age group of 4chan?

2. How would you describe yourself and others on 4chan?

3. What is your social life like?

4. Influences or motivations?

5. Advice for my research paper? Other than change your topic.

Make some research on 4chan around the internet, nothing here can be taken seriously.
To be fair, I'd say the most interesting aspect of this place is seeing how people behave with each other when they have /full/ anonymity.
Second interesting thing is that everybody is on the same level, no message count, no level, no nothing, everybody is exactly the same here.
And really you can draw examples of this from pretty much any social theory of philosophy.
(You should check out Rousseau and the natural state, because this place is kinda what humans become when you strip them from any social obligations)

On one page someone might say they don't believe in the holocaust while on the other they might say they love anime, and even if this is a pretty stereotypical example it's pretty accurate.
I mean for instance, I'm actually a pretty normal person, I'm a 19 yo student, and I behave normally in most social contexts, I might even call myself a nice guy, but that won't prevent me from being an asshole to somebody here just for fun, especially if they get triggered easily.
Compared to most people here I'd say I'm a normie, you won't get many other pretty serious answer.

I'm new to 4chan and do not know how to directly reply to someone, but thank you for the help and honest reply.

Also I'm here mainly to observe and get any form of replies, there's no set format for my research paper.

19. And I'd say the majority of current 4chan users are probably between the ages of 16-30, with the majority being twentysomethings.

I think the average 4chan user is probably a twentysomething white male who likes to watch anime and/or play video games, and isn't the stereotypical neckbeard fedora type, but a fairly normal looking guy who is just kind of socially awkward so he gets social interaction on places like 4chan instead of irl. I mean that's just the average, there's a big spectrum of people here and obviously 4chan isn't just for weebs and trolls anymore.

I have a couple of people I would consider actual friends, but I will hang out with acquaintances from time to time. I really prefer to spend time by myself most of the time though.

3. Fairly antisocial but I have a few friends that I'm close with and hang out with regularly.

4. For using 4chan? I've been on here for years and it just has been the go to, everytime I leave I end up back here. Also it's nice that the site is still pretty nuts which keeps it unique.

5. Try some more questions maybe? Idk

There is a massive disparity on this site. For example, this board, /adv/ is the most left/liberal on the site. On the other hand, /pol/ is the most right/conservative board. /r9k/ is is own gem.

Are you planning to observe every board or just /adv/?

Thanks for the help, great png.

Mein Kampf... Well I guess we all have different interest in reads.

I plan on observing any recommended board. I have gone on some well known ones people have told me to go on such as /mlp/, /pol/, and /b/.
>>
>>18150599
I guess you should visit the boards that this site is "known for" then. They would approximately be /b/, /d/, /r9k/, /int/, /mlp/, /pol/, and /v/. /d/ is the slowest of these boards.
