What do you miss the most about the way Yea Forums was when you first visited it?
What do you miss the most about the way Yea Forums was when you first visited it?
Honestly? The feels threads, the sentimental bonding, the raids. I remember when we got Oprah to say the penis thing. That Yea Forums was fucking hilarious
when dubs actually meant something
There not being so much traps and dick posts
did you do the we anime thread
i miss community you cant talk to anyone
ur banned ur banned ur banned
based stroke poster
The creativity of fellow anons.
There was a kind of bond there, that just doesn't exist anymore.
Like what said.
Now there's just different types of porn and people trying to just piss each other off.
It used to be great, but these days I don't know why I still come back.
Damn near all the oldfags are long gone...
no we still here. but we are monitoring the situation
if you make a nostalgia or comfy thread the dudefams just start seizing and have to shit on everything no one comes here to chill if you try being chill people poop everywhere the shit finally backed up and won't flush anymore
How it was shitting out OC memes like nothing.
I feel that. But I'm starting to think this dumpster fire will only get worse.
We used to be about each other, just having fun amongst ourselves, and occasionally screwing with some part of the outside world.
I really do miss those days.

Also, greentext stories being a thing, I miss reading the “works of fiction”. Things will never be the same, Yea Forums just keeps evolving and doesn’t seem to stop.
The porn has always been here from my perspective.
barf
Elaborate?
I'm curious.
stopped evolving with loss of anonymity, moot, actual mods, nuance, and something else.. stopped dead and began rolling back
nobody was about anything, people just came with more to offer than dick, ruminating over negative things and feels was one of the vulnerabilities that helped make this place crack for hip dudes
I miss John posting
Yeah, i feel you, although that's a little rose-tinted. Not your personal army, stupid bans, and things like that were common. But the community protected itself that way. In order to keep things sane, even on Yea Forums, you had to put community first, like IRC. But when the jews took over with all the trap, trans and interracial stuff, many fled. But it won't kill us.
Right now im mainly here to see what happens with this shit It's the next important role Yea Forums has to play in the upcoming infowar
That there was less porn. That's it.
If you "miss" anything you are cancerous roodypoo and just can't find it anymore.
we are still here.
I think a lot of us just started lurking as there wasn't any way to stop the summer
this image. nothing else really
I agree, nobody was about anything. But it brought people together with random thoughts, and everyone's else's thoughts on them. It was a chaotic, yet functioning system. But I do agree that things like feels threads contributed.
And you user, worded this perfectly. Far better than I was trying.
And damn, are you right.
Raid threads. I'll say it again: the shitty Not Your Personal Army meme killed Yea Forums
>Hurrrr Yea Forums was never good
Game threads. There was a dragon slaying one that was hella fun.
>agree
>but
>agree
this is also cancer. people knew silence was okay only chimed in when they particularly felt they knew something or had something to add instead of threads moving so slow that you want to comment on everything because you miss the flow
People planning fucked up shit
Old Yea Forums was always torturing animals or planning how to kill Justin Bieber fans
Sadly nowadays it’s really rare to see those posts
When a girl posted tits people wanted to see more, not report her to the police and ruin her life.
that I thought it was cool with the rekt and other things, now I am 28 and the ride never ends
this is nothing but a fucking porn board now. 10 years ago this was a place for outcasts. now it's a place for normies. and that's why this happened.
anons wouldn't feed their dumb asses if they didn't post either and there just wasn't so much gay shit
they're all stuck here shuffling in a huge circle of assfucking
surprise buttsecks
I don't like blood and gore, but I did appreciate it that some anons would chase away normies by filling up cancer threads with stuff like that. Now it's just rekt threads.
Raids. Loved old raids. They were fun.
No bananas, no faggot with the swastikasa "ray pist" posts, the only spam was more serious spam, crap like javascript that would spam the web site and stuff. The modern trolls are weak faggots.
Yea Forums vs anontalk
Yall acting like a bunch of whiny cunts. At least yall had fun. I just got to know bout Yea Forums a week ago. Feels like i missed something big that makes the internet so damn good.
you don't even know who you are faggot
less pornposts. more general topics
trolling was a matter of opportunity occuring not a forced trainwreck
Might feel like that, but I remember maybe 3 threads that actually felt epic that I was there for.
once the first cock was photoshopped into someone's mouth it all quickly went to shit
This. The unity is gone from this place
Frequent illegal content posts
>unity
it was more censored things then what people think by illegal
>It used to be great
This fucking thread is the reason Yea Forums kill itself 10 years ago
Less furfags posting zoophile Content
checked
I only got on here in 2016.
When I got on it was nothing like what I heard about and only shift further from what is it was made out to be (I'm talking about the whole site in front just Yea Forums).
And I've seen a lot of users complaining about the same thing (it not being what it used to) while others just kinda shit on everyone.
And ya know today showed a bit of Hope on a really good start.
I think it's gonna get better and i think the oldfags and gonna come back.
Until then I'm gonna keep trying to put out more OC.
you know, it would be technically possible to make a Yea Forums without spam, and still user, and in fact blockchain based so mods don't delete the network simply chooses to forget..
But lets face it, no one would fucking use it.
the shitters will polish up awhile when everyone had stopped paying attention but its still mostly crap most of the oldfags you want back had to take a hard pass somewhere else I mean you gonna summon them or what? just make it new
i don't need to
uwot
>how funny ylyl threads used to be
>frequency of rekt threads
>The rumours that that one mod fucked his sister
>stronger sense of community
Yea Forums used to feel a lot more unified. Like a big house with all the guys. a bunch of crazy shit is going on in each room, some have the guys fucking anything they can get their hands on, one has the guys laughing together at stupid shit on a computer screen, one has the guys just sitting around telling stories and having a good time, etc. but it was always the guys.
Now it feels like being a freshman on a huge new college campus. There are a bunch of clubs scattered around, doing all the same things you and the guys used to do back when you were younger, but nobody knows each other. The clubs are filled with people who come for the day, leave their input and leave. They don't take down numbers, don't hang out afterwards, they just leave.
LMFAO
this is so randum
they miss it.
that's all I'm saying.
There was always porn.
Anons have always been creative and the lulz were just as infrequent then as they are now.
Instead of andy sixx and ray pist we had CP and gore everywhere.
Yea Forums was never good y'all.
That's what MAKES it good.
yeah /g/ feels this way to me now.
y'all a faggot
i bet /fit/ (which is awesome btw) was better in the old days too. they've always been super nice, just like the Fight on! crew of Mob Psycho 100's Body Improvement Club, but i bet it was more "clubby" back in the day.
things can only move forward
I miss when the site used to have thread with some anthro art.
There wasn't any magical "thing" that caused us to unify. Intact, the only things that caused such "unity" was someone doing something we ALL disagreed with just on principle. Such as rule 0.
Everybody disagrees with harming cats. Period. Even if we are dog people.
and they will.
Yes user-fag. We all are.
autonoko was OFF and it frustrated all the normalfags right the fuck off the website.
>snark snark
Yea Forums was always garbage
I cried with relief when it was changed tho.
You don't get to go where the wild fags are without becoming one too.
Welcome brother.
there were more shinies, more than zero
Anyway, it is exceedingly rare to find yiff online.
Remember that pic of the guy shitting on a tied-down toddler was always getting posted? Not that I miss it, but that was a different time.
no homo
Summerfag
idk what that means
You're already here homo.
I would have shit myself if this were dubs
When I first got here there was significantly less porn.
This times a million, so fucking funny
it's the beginning of smug smug
it starts
speaking of OC memes
Nobody made you come here, nobody makes you stay. Only you makes you gay.
Faggot.
I miss the sink threads.... best days.
Newfags dont even know
Fingerboxes.
roses are red ur a dipshit
Exactly. But the new user doesnt know
I was disturbed by peoples posts back then.
it was mainly people tho. not like now
The 404 forbiddena days
You're a faggot.
you're a winner!
Like many have already said, the camaraderie between anons and entertainment being the forefront instead of porn. The internet spawned something truly unique and it's a shame it will never be that way again.
what could we do though to make it better though?
lol why does everyone miss furry shit
I couldn't care less about this site or you all. I was referring to how I've become so desensitized to all the shit in the world.
actively ruin porn threads like pathetic spammers that I loathe or we could have a good thread right now instead of being bitchy about it
well done for not being shit-sensitive
Rekt threads are new. This place used to be the place for original shit. Now it's just some repost graveyard
It might be me not getting sarcasm but i think that might work.
A good thread needs lots of cute.
A winning faggot is still a faggot.
Become an hero, for the kids of tomorrow!
This. Man, Yea Forums used to be an Aladdin's cave of insanity.
I remember this one time OP posted a stream address and told us to get the fuck in there where he played this horrible 80's/90s movie. I'll never forget this one scene where OP pauses the movie, rewinds it a bit, then CSI zooms in on this teen girl in the crowd cheering with her arms in the air and she had unbelievably hairy pits. And there's this kid below her that is making this face...you'd just have to see it. Sides were lost.
You just never knew what new thing you were going to experience. Now, everyone just hates on everyone because life sucks for so many.
But oh well, at least I was there for the golden years...and hairy pit teen girl.
Yea Forums's literature threads back when you could still embed files into images. they got me into faulkner, kafka, hemingway, mccarthy, DFW and steinbeck. also helped me familiarize myself with marx, proust, plato, derrida and foucault, but these were much drier reads
das kapital was surprisingly full of sarcasm
I miss the culture. Yea Forums used to be the primordial cumstain of internet humor that other sites stole from years later and today it’s just garbage with no sense of culture or community. I rarely spend time actively amused or invested in threads anymore like I used to be able to in the good days. It’s a shame really.
wait, give me a minute.
there's something I haven't seen on Yea Forums in a long time.
This was killed by the catalog and search features.
Instead of wading through a river of everyone's shit, bumping into fresh shit while waiting for "your" thread to happen, you can just search for your thread, ignoring everyone else's and only experiencing that one type of Yea Forums...
Of course everything will feel stale and unoriginal. You aren't doing it right.
hehehehehe
that's the thing that's been missing
