Why not make VR threads here or on Reddit?All the good VR threads are on /v/ I find.
Everywhere else moves horribly slow. (Or pretty much exclusively talks VRchat)
VR thread doesn't exist? Just make one!
Nobody is responding? Just shitpost about VR dying!
EZ as 123.
"Everywhere else moves horribly slow." Also no memes. Also I hate reddit's voting and karma system.
The judgiest people in this thread give the impression that they've never touched 4chan before, and therefore don't really understand just how addictive it can be.
The image of Mr Burns putting up the sign saying "Don't forget, you're here forever." tends to get peddled pretty often, and it's generally considered common knowledge within 4chan itself that leaving is difficult. Make a post declaring intent to leave, and you'll get a few responses saying see ya tomorrow anon.
I've seen posts from jaded users in their 30s who have been there for more than a decade and hate themselves for it. It's an easy place to get stuck in, particually if you are unemployed and/or don't have many friends.

5 years. 5 years of daily use and I saw it once for literally a split second. I went back a month ago, in a moment of weakness, because I honestly believed and told myself it was unlikely I would see it again. But that aside, 4chan is an addiction I really want to shake. 5 years of visiting a place is hard to shake.I think it's fair to judge somebody who willingly visits a website where they were exposed to child pornography
That wasn't what I meant and you know it.If you can't see why child porn is significantly worse than nun porn then I'm not really sure what to say to you, buddy.
Is there something like MeetUp you could use to look for DnD groups in your area?I thought about joining some DnD group of strangers...
I'm not sure how to go about that though.
I will be starting a new job though soon, and that will help things.
I apologise, I've edited my post to better defend myself. I made the point with the nun porn badly. The point I was trying to make with that was that technically, no area of the internet is safe. Era may be safer than others, but there's nothing really stopping anyone in most places from posting horrific things just for shits and giggles.Well then I don't really see what somebody posting nun porn here as an account suicide has to do with somebody posting child porn on 4chan.
It's not a 'safe environment' and you damn well know it.
Find something else to do with the time you're spending visiting that place. It isn't hard. Take up a hobby, volunteer, learn something. I can't believe you'd rationalise this.
I haven't opened 4chan since I created this thread, and I intend to continue not opening it for as long as I can manage. I don't want to be told it's fine to visit 4chan, that's not the point here.A lot of people visited GAF for a decade before that site became a cess pool. They visited it every day, posted all the time, and had a sense of community for many. Then, overnight, people up and left.
I don't know the purpose of making a thread like this in the immediate aftermath of a shooting involving a forum that splintered from 4chan, an already terrible site, into something more foul and toxic. I know you keep saying it's addictive, and "memes", but people have given you many suggestions and alternatives. If you want to stop visiting the site, you should heed their advice.
But if the goal is to find some solace in continuing to visit a garbage place like them, that's not this community's responsibility. If you want forgiveness or absolution, talk to a priest, not a forum that sees that site for what it is.
