in 2007 a friend on Gaia Online showed it to me and told me it was where memes come from. The rest is history, I've been here too long.

pic related was my first reaction

I literally can't remember the first two questions.

I probably lurked /b/ for a while, rarely went on other boards other than /v/ at the time.

I've no idea how I found it either. This was 2007 so just before the Chanology influx of newfags. I would always just hang out in one message board and like weird websites after another. It started with albinoblacksheep and then newgrounds and then I lurked somethingawful for a while as well that's probably where I found out about 4chan.

Finally

> why the fuck have you wasted so much time on it since then?

I'm an anti-social introvert and so this is my bare minimum of human interaction, I'm also addicted to the internet.

I came on board around 2007, I think I saw some Scientology expose on YTMND and got linked to /b/.
Fuck me it's been 10 years

I hope you were already like 18 or 19 or even older when you first found this pace.

Nothing makes me sadder than people who grew up on this piece of shit website and spent their teens and early 20s posting frogs and troll faces.

B-but...where will all the roastie hate threads go?

>>39452931
2012. It was halloween and my friend said that he wanted to look at gore. We found the web site rotten dot com, and it eventually linked us to 4chan. The very first image I've ever seen on here was to old, fat, red neck men butt fucking each other. Needless to say, I never went back to 4chan ever again.

>>39453324
>needless to say, i never went back to 4chan again
keeeeek, gave me a good chuckle

>>39453316

no gore or nsfw. wich will cure 90% of cancer.

>>39452931
People on WoW called me a troll and to go back to /b/
so I came to check it out, but didn't start browsing til a few years after that tho.

>>39453316

Im only against pornspam/gore because it creates cheap shock-value and doesn't add anything to the discussion. I personally think that women hate-threads are really stupid but im not for censoring.

>>39453360

>>39453251
This was my case too. I came here years after but only to watch some gore videos or something.

But I really started my ride to hell with the Trump campaign.

Now I am at a point where I almost only post in /tv/. I used to post in /pol/ or here but I got tired of those.

Now I also want to get ride of this but I don't know how. I'm thinking in getting a permanent ban. That's the only that I have thought. I think that when I can't post then I will get bored of it. That's my theory. Has anyone tried this?

found out about it in 2005 by some meme spouters I knew in high school.

I didn't really understand it at first, rarely went. The vtech happened and I was curious as what /b/ would have to say. More and more I started to lurk /b/, then switched to other boards.

Now 4chan is my only form of socialization.

>>39453414
gl anon. cant you just leave ? kek.
only way to get perma ban is cp i think.

nothing is dumber than "hating" something and then spending your time and effort thinking and talking about it, like MGTOW and woman hate threads.

At that point you're not longer hating, you're actively obsessing. You spend more time involved with women or whatever than normies who don't hate them.

And the rest is history. /b/ was so slow then you could refresh it over and over and there would be no new posts. I remember being so confused when Moot showed his face and revealed he wasn't pic related...

Been here since I was 13, 24 now. Best friend showed me 4chan as a source for cool shit. I lurked for a long time, finding cool links and stories.
I've wasted so much time here because it's better than wasting it on Facebook like everyone else.

I first came here in 2006 while on a search for anime titties. I'm still here because you can't leave.

>>39453574
>wasting it on Facebook like everyone else.

I hate to break it to you but normies only spend like 15 minutes each day on facebook at most. They waste their time hanging out with friends and doing other normie things.

>>39453477
>cant you just leave ?
No, I can't. Now the internet is 4chan and YouTube for me 90% of the time. The other 10% is porn. I have thought about it and I think the thing that makes this site so adictive is that we are lonely persons and here we feel less lonely. That and because is fresh and instantaneous. Also anonimmity off course.

What is cp? pedophilia?

Nah, most of the people I know irl spend their days working and secretly browsing facebook/twitter/ifunny, then going home to watch TV.

>>39453673
I'm not white-knighting or defending women. I'm just wondering why you spend your time actively hating something. That doesn't seem like fun at all.

I hated my old job, but I didn't make threads everyday to remind myself of it during my time off.

Found out about it from funny junk back in 2010/11. Went on /b/ and it was my sense of humor, oldfags used to call it cancer and while it might've been, it's nothing compared to the cancer that /b/ is today.

>>39452931

Those aren't normies. I know that people on r9k think that like redditors are in the same boat as alpha chads and if you use the toilet you're a normie ree get off my board, but no normie is using the internet as much as robots are using 4chan, and definitely now in the same way.

>>39452931
In 2007ish, I think I had heard about it somewhere as a dangerous place with CP and where hackers could find you and ruin your life with a single push of a button. I believed it because I was 11 and lurked for two years because I was too afraid to post.

You are probably posting with more 12 year olds than you think. I would guess underage is a good 20-30% of this website.

>>39453820
show me where I defended women you mumbling retard

You're upset because I held up a mirror to your pointless behavior.

Do you think this website is starting to get stale? Stagnating? How long do you think it'll live?

There's no way you'll still be here in 20 years, or see the world through its lenses as much as you're doing now.

I was pretty unimpressed. I'm not sure why I kept browsing desu.

I think I got here through YTMND in 06, maybe? I remember there was some autistic shitstorm with ebaum's world. I also remember finally getting my own computer and staying up all night laughing at those law for kids edits.

As for why I stayed, well, who knows? I guess I just enjoy the atmosphere, even if it's changed a lot.
