Its funny, but being anonymous has given me much more attention than I've ever gotten in real life. Here if I make a post people will respond to it, and I can start a conversation, and thats all that has to happen. On forums and real life none of it matters, I need to force/engage every conversation and I don't think anyone really likes me at all.

i think it's fairly justified...

i don't even bother speaking to anyone but one guy (who i have a really weird relationship with anyway, i suspect it's gonna go to shit quickly and i'm gonna get left all alone again, if i wasn't already), both online and IRL. it's too much effort, too much pain, doesn't satisfy my social needs even if i succeed at keeping a conversation, and they usually don't even want to have anything to do with me after they get to actually know me.
i don't know, looking back at my life, i think the best way to get around stuff might be to actually avoid any contact with people at all. wish i didn't have any need for social stuff so i could actually succeed.

I'm not behind the "internet culture" it's just dull and there is nothing left to be explored.

Yeah, most of us are mentally ill, but we're not that weird. You can always point it out "you're acting in this or that way" most of us will listen.
Besides (as far as I know) we all have a reason for being the way we are.

Now they are all with this new internet slang that I find stupid, annoying, simple, unfunny or sometimes I just can't understand it.

Yeah, even I once posted on one forum, at times provoking newbies (only the stupid ones) into embarassing themselves, at times posting opinions about anime, news, etc.
Even if those years were fairly bad, I can't ignore that I at least, for example, had an identity. Furthermore I, or that identity, was fairly liked, at least by people who could add two integers together.
But of course most of them, and most internet people, when not under a nickname, were the same as everybody else. Alcohol, party hard, dreams, hopes, cliques.
Internet and their nicknames were only one hobby of them, amongst many others. It was only I who thought that, like myself, that was everything they had.

So, no OP, I have not, we have not been left behind, because we were never 'there'. At the moment I felt I was part of [internet culture]. The fact is that I was only a [guy who doesn't have anything else], interacting with [guys who have fun on the internet as a part-time hobby]. It was never symmetrical interaction among peers, if only internet peers, only an illusion of that.

I had fun, yes. Now, not anymore simply because you can only squeeze so much fun out of the internet. There's nothing to regret because it couldn't have been any other way.

It's weird and somewhat ironic that I'm actually not as 'addicted to the internet' as my peers (Long story short, I'm currently forcing myself to socialize - undergrad, building resume, get job etc).

Most of the people I know simply have to be connected to the net all the time: facebooking/ reddit from phone. Whereas for me, I firmly believe in a "what goes on in the internet stays in my com". And yes, looking at some of them spewing memes just made me, I don't know feel odd...

Funnily enough, some of them actually thought that I'm not net culture savvy when it's the other way round where I just don't see the need to bring that stuffs out.

when you find yourself so abandoned that you abandon abandonment there's only one thing you need to realize, that you're RIGHT.

But certainly for the present age, which prefers the sign to the thing signified, the copy to the original, representation to reality, the appearance to the essence... illusion only is sacred, truth profane. Nay, sacredness is held to be enhanced in proportion as truth decreases and illusion increases, so that the highest degree of illusion comes to be the highest degree of sacredness.

Now in reality, and the internet, we are alone. Death and obscure MMO's are the only escape.

I'm trying to convince jp there's only three ways out, as far as I see it...Gensokyo, delve into obscure MMO, or...just live life as a game and take as much as you can out of it. You will have to look/act normalfag on the outside but it doesn't have to be you. Get in shape, pwn 3DPD's, get a decent job, go to a community college, jew money hard, and play video games/surf the internet a bit less. Get a cheap 3gb Mp3 player for 2hu music and some other stuff, and try and get out more. I've been where OP's been a few years ago when I seen it happening, and I'm already living it. I Just go on jp now. I can't even enjoy video games, that much. They're just time sinks. They all feel that way.

You will never get the feel of playing Pokemon Red/Blue for the first time, or playing EoSD and dying on Rumia's stage over and over until you 1CC'd the game. Such is the way jp.

I posted on 4chan for 7 years, often for 6 hours a day every day. I saw the first instance of Rickrolling, when someone in /v/ posted a link alleging it to be a GTAIV gameplay trailer. I was part of the KS team in the first few months of their inception. The concept of the MC having a heart disorder was my only lasting contributing before I left amid the stupid drama. And I saw all those other stupid memes come into inception. I feel like the goddamn Forrest Gump of the internet, because I feared failure too much to even attempt making any mark on the real-world.

Then last week I went back to my hometown. The one I spent years desperately trying to ignore while sticking to the internet. And as I rode my bike down the boardwalk I saw this. The most obscure, hidden things stored on my harddrive were now splashed all over mainstream society. My 10-year old cousin once showed me meme comics he made himself on his iphone, and I felt a sense of worlds colliding. Also for the first time it made me feel like technology was advancing at a clip faster than I could keep up with.

No not really. I remember posting on forums, but my heavy internet use was around the time 4chan was created and I've probably spent 90% of my total time online being here. I can't post on forums anymore. My culture and old memes have died out rather than become mainstream. I realize it's for the best, though.

At least loli will never be mainstream.

I never liked shitty memes, dumb faces, or even captioned cat pictures all that much. I don't understand why people like them so much and continue to send them to me. I think it's like Looney Tunes. Once upon a time, they were satires of modern culture with lots of pop culture references and memes mostly for older audiences. By the 90s, no one knew what they were referencing anymore and they were just wacky cartoons for kids that made silly faces and quotes sometimes.

I sort of wish loli was mainstream.

There are people who go "lol pedobear" but I wish there was some funny reference to something loli related or racist that people would quote and not know its origin. (Notice how you don't see the HUEHUEHUEHUE face anywhere)

I sort of hoped 4chan would eventually die so I could have my life back, but I never thought that even if I became normal, I'd be surrounded by its runoff forever. People will still quote that shit when they are old. Family guy 2040 will be making "remember that time" jokes about this bullshit. The only comfort I have is that at least people are finally moving on to Reddit and other shit. Eventually all those idiots will be trapped in their future facebooks and lulsites and 4chan will go back to the way it was before.

Until some idiot starts the raiding/pwning bullshit again that ruined /b/, /v/, /a/, and /jp/.(/jp/'s care less raiding and more being autistic at mmos)

If you are talking about reducing the amount of shitposting on /jp/, then it's impossible because this place will never get any effective moderation.
/jp/ is still redeemable, though. The doll threads, the fig threads and the Comiket threads are still the best things this board has to offer. Why can't /jp/sies just ignore the shit they don't like?

there are myriad ways to transform reality, starting with yourself, and your worldview. pretend, immerse in fantasy, take jokes seriously, make serious things jokes, pretend to be people you like and so on. /jp/ is good at these things.

It sucks when you find a site you really like and it has an IRC so you go in but then realise everyone has known each other for like 2 years already and even if you started a conversation you would just be "that guy nobody knows" or more likely "that weird guy everybody ignores" so you leave and continue browsing the site alone, and when everyone makes reference to the IRC you don't understand it because you weren't there so you don't understand all the little injokes and talk about what happened last night so you get frustrated and think "well fuck you you fucking social normalfaggots" but only because secretly you wish you could join in with them and have fun chatting but you don't understand how these people seem to have met at just the right time to form bonds with each other that make entry to the group impossible for newcomers whilst maintaining a comfortable social dynamic for those already involved and over the years you slowly accept that you will never experience this

I'm not really NEET anymore, but I got to tell you guys: the outside world isn't what it's cracked up to be. Even with the narrow worldview you guys have, you are more authentic than anyone I have ever known. Even those I've meet that take matters of wisdom very seriously and are unafraid to think thought that might alienate themselves from society, even they retain a dependence upon normality that limits their outlook. Of course you feel lonely and long for community, but let me tell you: community no longer exists. All we have left are traces that tell us the community is possible. My friends, you are one of those traces. If civilization does not destroy itself, it will be because of individuals like yourselves who take your exclusion, your lack of a determinate role in the social order and forge a new community of misfits. Whether you die in obscurity or change everything, know this: the world is yours.

Love you, /jp/.

Yes, it's always been bad. It's not even reality, but more like a poorly written comedy.

There's meaning in comfort, but out there, they don't care about meaning. They only care about the images and symbols, they indulge in trite rituals and think this is "doing something". They call their base biological functions "living" and they denounce those that naturally shy away from such an existence. If a person must live in a dream, would it not make sense that they seek that which brings them comfort rather than pain?

The problem with the popularization of the internet with social media, blogging, etc. is that even my delusions are now shattered with the reminder that there's an ugly, twisted world out there. It is really quite sad; I hardly even go on the internet anymore other than to download things.
