Was Yea Forums actually always like this?
And also if it wasn't like this now then why do you faggots give any attention to all the porn and repost shit?
Berate it shall be. Fuck off you ball locking newfag. No one gives a shit about what you asked cause you're a cuck that enjoys it.
No
it was never good, but it was better
Yes, Yea Forums was always shit, apart from the Tom Green raids.
Too soon
There is SO much more porn and less nonsense.
Yea Forums was never good, but on average the threads were better. More laughs, less political bullshit, somewhat less porn. All the good memes came from here and everyone wanted to get in on the ground floor of one. Milhouse is still not a meme, though.
>all the good memes came from eBaums World
ftfy
Some part were actually worse. We used to have namefags that thought they were special. It was very Reddit of them.
CP was way more common. It was deterred from within by spamming other shit. Spiderman threads, kill it with Gore, sage in all fields etc...
We use to actually do shit. Like raids were common. We'd just be general pieces of shit for trolling cam girls, Omegle losers or other streamers. Shoe on head an such.
I stick around mostly out of nostalgia
The recent Bob Buckhorn Twitter hack was the closest thing to old Yea Forums I've seen on here in a while.
Back in 2005 you can bet your ass there was porn galore. However it was mostly OC because we didn't have Instagram sluts and kik. Facebook fap kinda spawned off the insta thing and Yea Forums had some gay shit on it but there was never explicitly gay, trap, and shota threads on here cause we berated and saged the shit out of them. Most of the gay shit was stuff like the image I posted. There were location threads but we never asked for 'kiks' or intas back then. We posted what we could get away with here and made gmasks for fun. There was always something new to see and always some really good storied on here. Yea Forums now feels like reddit but scummy and repetitious. Also, most political threads ended up with banned users that were explicitly told to post on /pol/ or fuck off. We made friends through memes and rolling for numbers only meant something if it was a unique prize board. Getting banned back then was a lot harder and if you did get banned the mods laughed at you and banned you for stupid reasons. Even if you showed up on a proxy, the mods would laugh at the fact that you were back on the board and all was good. We made fun of things all the time and we never really cared about other people. Memes were easy to be had back then and had some depth because they were usually because of someone's fuck up. Not something we could generate with a website. The feeling of being on Yea Forums back then was definitely "Oh what crazy funny shit am I going to be a part of today". It was most definitely not "what kind of shota, loli, trap, fb, ig, wwyd, cuck, kik, incest, Rollin for nothing, political, rekt thread am I going to ignore today".
Some knowledge from someone who was here since 2005 (my sophomore of hs, now expecting my first child in 3 months):
>older remnants of Yea Forums can be seen occasionally on /r9k/ and rarely here
>porn was nowhere as bad before 2014. with social media normalizing Yea Forums, it became apparent that Yea Forums would house such shit instead of /soc/ for some reason
>the top threads pre-triple digit censor were roll threads and AMA.
>rage comics and troll physics were the earliest cancers to appear on Yea Forums as OC from other Yea Forumstards.
imo Yea Forums isnt dead, it has always evolved, but so far all the influence that makes Yea Forums evolve (OC, thread patterning, mods doing their jobs) has frozen - even [s4s] and /x/ have greater variation and discussion.
I just dont like the social media threads is all. ylyl were always plagued by tards who spammed shit - the islam/hentai/ray pist are vanilla compared to the earlier animal gore/ check em spam/jump scares
>be me
>used to use /i/ when it was invasion
>we just talked about club penguin and occasionally meme about LOIC to take down the sony network
Been here since 04
It wasnt.
Back then it was a bit more of a community of sorts.
A place for the outcasts to chat and laugh about shit that they couldnt with normal people.
It was our outlet. We were able to vent and say whatever the hell we wanted no matter how shitty it was.
I'm still here because some of those people are still here.
I see this place now as a real dump but if you dog deep and long enough you find treasure.
It makes it even more special to me.
To come across threads that remind me of those times. It feels way more special.
That's why I'm still here
4 Chan needs a new board called /fgt/ obviously for poo pushing degenerates, this includes traps. Please so Yea Forums can restore a tiny bit of its former glory.
why, thats what /soc/ is for but mods just dont care about what happens on Yea Forums unless its hacking or cheese pizza
Yea Forums has too many rules nowadays to be as good as it used to be. Those days are gone.
Why did they get rid of poster IDs on Yea Forums?
How come webms have no sound here, but do on other boards?
What can you tell me about hands free fapping?
Because those other boards would get zero traffic.
So why won’t they stay there? It’s because there not happy unless they push it into our faces just like real life, welcome to the modern world.
Because we are supposed to be anonymous.
I stick around because I lost a really cool recipe to make crystals from here. Hoping to find it again. Got a kids birthday party coming up.
only gif and wsg have sound enabled, and thats because the amount of data passing through Yea Forums was extreme and too much posts early on with sound were explicit in nature so they were muted, and it saves server space.
Yea Forums is MUCH slower than it once was, i guarantee you if you saw a old school sticky thread your head would spin.
ID: heaven
Well the easiest way to do it would be to summon a succubus.
>Heaven
I'm actually triggered.
You're still anonymous with a random ID though. Just made it easy to know when OP replied, someone samefagged
LURK FUCKING MOAR
Who likes mom son incest?
ezsluts.com
What's the story with Heaven? I used to see posts with that as the ID, which confused me since everyone else was random. Was that a specific person, or just some trick to do?
why do people not ask about the dark web anymore? I remember reading greentexts about ordering stuff or guides for TOR
Look who it is again, ID Heaven. I'm fed up with your shit faggot. The other day when you called me a newfag, yeah, haven't forgotten about that yet. Fuck you I've been on here for months and probably get on here more than you anyways. Don't you know that you make yourself look like a newfag when you call others newfag? Just because you learned how to hack your name and change it to "Heaven" does not give you the right to disrespect anyone at any time.
Because that's part of the cancer. We didn't give a fuck about that shit back then. Why should we give a fuck now.
Instructions unclear. Dick caught in ceiling fan.
Fucking Heaven was a code hammer through and through. The real reason they got rid of IDs was that cunt.
You could keep your name from thread to thread it wasn't really anonymous. Some people would idolize certain tripfags. No one was supposed to be more special/popular/whatever. We were one. There isn't the same feeling of solidarity now. It's hard to explain.
>> the islam/hentai/ray pist are vanilla compared to the earlier animal gore/ check em spam/jump scares
so true when i see what ppl spam now i almost lose to it its so lame its funny compared with the incredibly annoying shit that ppl used to derail threads with.
gay content was almost never seen while now someone seems to be trying to kill teh whole board with the troll idea that traps aren't gay
epic screen caps that would have you rolling around on the floor were common
also threads had a very short lifespan and the board was very dynamic
and most importantly of all the file size limit was high enuf to post a decent quality image or gif
Chemo was cool though. Killing cancer with gore.
The 'dark web' is a honeypot now since Yea Forums brought more mainstream appeal to it. Just look at all the youtubers now going onto the dark web and how easy it is to get to it.
you bloody legend
Nostalgia thread?
I don't know I'm trying to learn
Edit:
>nvm I googled it
Is that pic of Moot jerking off legit or shooped? The one with the Yankees hat.
How many of you forgot? 10 year anniversary is coming up!!
Yes
The good ol days. Like 2009 when shit seemed to be hitting the fan every other week. God damn. I never really participated in the antics, just watched as Hell broke loose on the mortal and tame world that the internet use to be.
I remember the first time my buddy showed me Yea Forums. He was like "dude I'm gonna show this site thats got crazy shit on it. Some of it you're not going to want to see, just scroll past it real quick and eventually you'll see something cool." Within 15 seconds I see some grown black man jizzing on some 6 year old girl and we're both just staring at the screen. Like watching people scream from a flaming car wreck. You don't want to see, but you can't look away. After about 10 seconds of "holy shit this is real shit" scrolled down to next post which was a "brain-gasm" post. Squat down breathe in and out as hard as you can for 60 seconds, stand up and blow on your thumb... "this sounds retarded" i though. My friend tried it and instantly fell to the ground and got up laughing like "wtf just happened lololol"...
I then explained brain-gasms to some kids at school and they tried it during gym class. One kid passed out, fell backwards and cracked his head on the bleachers and everyone else ran away while the other kid was bleeding from his head lmao he's fine now but he was actually fucked up. This was just from day 1 on Yea Forums 2009.
too much shit to talk about and makes me sad how almost 10 years has gone by since then and now I'm an adult with a job and shit, basically just waiting to die.
nostalgia
How did you know when to NYPA or actually do something about it? Seems like everyone is NYPA now.
