SA is pretty funny since some of the humor is unique to the rest on the internet, the large amount of self-hate however is sometimes too much so I switch to reddit for a while. Then I realize that reddit is unberable in the completely other direction so I spend more and more time outside with people or hobbies instead of spending my evenings watching netflix and surfing forums. So thanks something awful for making my life better

I.N.R.I posted:It reminds me of when you see an alcoholic in public or a funeral procession driving past. Everyone who posts here is like 1 epiphany away from crying all the time. Its because theres only depressed people posting in GBS due to the fact its rare for normal people to go on websites like this these days - they all go on reddit or twitter or other websites that happy people like to use. fiurthermore nobody wants to post here because it might make them sad as well if they do I'm so close keep going

Reddit's userbase is more depressed, but they hide in weird subreddits or downvote each other.

whoever sincerely thinks facebook isn't for normal people may be somewhat retarded, like your fuckin' aunt prolly has a facebook by now also SA is bad because all the interesting posters got banned/ran off by the hugbox and everything is somehow politicized now in a really gay unfunny way. Like that recent threat talking about Bushman, who back in the day, was a pretty well-known SA thing who constantly provided interesting content about murdering feral boars. Nowadays if he tried to post that he'd get ran off by faggots calling him insane and troubled and Definitely Not Good. People care too much about poo poo other people find entertaining and definitely let other people know how hosed up they are for being "obsessive" or whatever.

My facebook wall is much more sad than these forums, though less nerdy. That might have more to do with my hometown though.

Moon Atari posted:Its the saddest forum on the internet because as a community formed on the basis of mocking and criticising other communities it inevitably lead to mocking and criticising each other. For a long time this had the benefit of reducing some of the weird stuff that develops from hug box forums and complete anonymity, but eventually lead to people being relentlessly suspicious that other goons were weird internet perverts and hyper self-aware and ashamed of their own goony ways. Of course the user base had always consisted of the only people who would regularly visit a forum: nerds, but in this case the specific breed of nerd with enough social awareness to be embarrassed by their social deficits and weirdness and as such extra vigilant to other weirdos. So everyone became excessively negative towards each other and a greater degree of conformity set in, sapping most of the fun. When even a sites owner seems to openly hate it then its understandable that users might also be ashamed of their membership and seek places that support whatever they are into. On top of this SA has always been deliberately exclusionary, with regular bannings being considered part of the culture. While this was both a lot of fun and beneficial in the glory days it continued beyond a point of sustainability, where even with dwindling registrations the most prolific posters would still be banned. Now even if we were to be punching far above our weight in terms of quality content to active users ratio we still would have nowhere near the output of more heavily trafficked sites. Plus there is little reason for any new posters to reg when anything of value we might accidentally produce will quickly be exported to larger sites that don't charge a fee. So what we're left with is the internet equivalent of a lovely relationship, where everyone is unhappy and determined to make each other equally unhappy, but stuck due to laziness/fear of change/some weird form of masochism. Well at least that's why I'm still here (also i don't understand reddit). Savings Coupon posted:*fffaaaarrrrrrtttttttt* Rhizoids posted:Thoroughly thought out analysis. Excellent points, eloquently articulated. Truly a most insightful look into the zeitgeist of the modern era.

The best thread is the passive aggressive letters one in E/N because there's nobody in there to tell them what they're allowed to feel or say.

I'd really like to see user stats for the past ten years or so. If lowtax doesn't give a poo poo, he might as well publish them. I think gbs had around 1300-1700 logged in users during prime time in 2008. iirc
