/n/ - NEET

/vr/, couple irc channels.

>>10948
I'm not OP but if I didn't arbitrarily have my IP-range banned from 4chan I'd probably post there. I remember them having some nice Earthbound threads and other cool stuff.

As for me, just a couple irc channels. Used to be on a few forums but they all destroyed themselves in hilarious ways.

>>10949
Forums tend to do that sadly. Usually it is mod drama or people being unable to get along that does them in. It is sad because it is often very pointless and stupid.

/vr/ is a pretty good board, one of the best on 4chan I think. I really like the DooM threads that are a constant fixture of the place.

I'm not really part of any other communities unless you count a small steam group I'm part of that has some nice well moderated servers, or the Skype group of hosts and spawn. I used to be a part of the INTJ forms but I no longer interact with the community, I still go to the website no purely for the purpose of checking out the "amusing images" *picture related* thread. There was nothing that really drove me away from the community, I just grew bored of it, there are some interesting people there to be sure, and very little drama, unless you count the endless debates and arguments.

>>10950
Well, the first forum of the two I mentioned died because the web-developer was a lazy, depressive sack of shit that refused to work on the site while the owner was still paying for software for his sake. Eventually he got fed with it and the two fought each other. The dev had made friends among the rather circlejerky SJW segment of the site and they covered everything in spam, porn and vitriol on their way out, forming their own forum.

I arrived to the first one after all this had already happened, and the original forum was at this point a a band mostly of libertarian types who still enjoyed debate; by this point the liberal offshoot had already stagnated and become a retarded, leftist circlejerk where everyone agreed with one another, feared any actual discussion and may stupid in-jokes and bitched about their lives.

For about a year I became part of the original forum, debating things, participating in infighting for the sake of infighting, and at times really enjoying what was left of the community (though looking back on it I was kind of an idiot, I mean to be fair I was 15 or so at the time still). Eventually it died because the domain-name expired and the original owner had long since stopped giving a fuck, seeming to distance himself after his fight with his former friend the manic-depressive, obese sack of shit web dev.

I made some friends on the original forums, a few of whom I'm still genuinely fond of, but the guy who was made admin after the departure of the original owner IS a humongous, narcissistic cocksucker who has actually made me feel like shit at various over the last few years. At this point he just circlejerks like the deluded, sad-sacks from the other forum he derided in the past along with me, constantly talking to the only people from the original forum who still have the stomach for it: an Australian autist, a homeschooled lesbian from New Jersey who did nothing but mess with me for the short time I got to know her and a Kraut who calls me a sickfuck (he's actually pretty alright though, if only for his silky smooth accent).

I can think of a few people from there I'd still genuinely like to meet up with; one of the things in the next few years I'm most excited about, in fact, is that he'll be moving closer.

Anyway, getting back to the story, the other forum also died a little while ago after the admin ditched it, seeming to either finally abandon his little forum because he couldn't handle actual, legitimate disagreement the likes of which were finally cropping up or because he wanted to stop being a NEET and didn't want his name associated with loser, autistic SJW shit, which was what about half the userbase reveled in. I'd like to think I contributed to that. It was a miserable shit hole but a few positive things did come of my subjecting myself to it, I met a few people who were aware of how and why it was terrible and made some decent friendships.

In an infp/intp facebook group that i'm on a fair bit. i'm also in a mental illness forum, but I stopped posting etc on it when my mum checked my emails and she ended up on the forum(I don't know if she knew i was on it).

Every now and then, I used to post on a forum for people with a certain common problem that I won't mention, but I stopped visiting not too long ago. The people there just couldn't stop living in the past, and I didn't want to be like that. I wanted to move on with my life, so I did, no offense to them.

I quit going to 4chan a few months ago too when I realized how much time I was wasting there. When I started going, it was because I liked the idea of anonymity, of a place where I could be myself. But over time, I figured out that the hive mentality there had taken root far too deep for that to be truly possible (at least, without being attacked for everything you post). I'm not saying we're 100% innocent of groupthink (honestly, no online community is), but at least with Uboachan, things don't move nearly fast enough to keep you reigned in for any extended period of time.

Nowadays, since what little existed of my social life is in ruins, I desperately want to be part of some online community, but I have a miraculous talent for being hated. Sure, I could fit in if I really tried, but that's the thing: I don't want to have to try. If I have to pretend to be someone I'm not, then what's the point? I might as well just go to a bar and hang around a bunch of pub crawlers about whom I couldn't give two shits.

I hang around in some semi-technical IRC channels and i also am a member of a small modding/gaming community.

Im still rather looking for another fun community i could join.

>>10955
>I have a miraculous talent for being hated
It's not that odd. Some people are just good at making enemies.

one small forum where we shitpost, stalk each other and try to destroy this bastardly service straszy.pl

A small, somewhat private IRC channel and 4chans' /jp/ and /vg/. I used to go on a roleplaying forum for a couple of years but it died, as well as a lost fansite/webgame that was taken over by assholes.

/jp/, ota-ch, hikkichan, and doujinstyle
i wouldn't really say i'm a part of any of those sites. i just kinda lurk around all day and rarely ever post

a very small Polish forum dedicated to role-playing games, CWCki Forums, Shmups Forum (system11)

I also occasionally browse Wizardchan and Hikkichan, but don't really post there. the first one is more of a vomitive shithole than Ubuu <3

>>10965
>Polish forum
Dasz link anonku?

>>10967
>link pls
F-forget it, I don't want to bring channers there. You'd be able to spot me instantly, and I enjoy being anonymous.

Some Serial Experiments Lain fan communities.
A quiet textboard which in an earlier incarnation was a community based around YKK and ARIA, and now is about calmly taking pleasure in life.
KSG on 4chan's /vg/.

>>10968
as you wish

I'm in a Skype group.

Hola tumblr normies!
You are all false neets and I wish you would find some other game to like, and would stop polluting yume nikki

>>10969

Dude no way, I lurked on some SEL forums too! Now I'm just chillin', maxin', relaixn' all cool in the Oyasumi PunPun message boards with some of my best bros, "LewdSlimeGirl" and "CuteMadokaWitch(✿｡◕‿◕｡)"

>>10974
>>10974
Yeah man, I fcuken hate these fake Yume Nikki fans. We appreciate Yume Niki in a much more profound way than you.

Just here and a couple boards on 420chan. I used to be on /r9k/ but it was starting to bring me down and reinforce a lot of negativity I was already dealing with.

I only lurk here. I was a regular at /mu/ for years but I stopped going there some months ago.

>>10984
You should go back to lurking.

>>10997

Apparently, we have a last.fm group: http://www.last.fm/group/Uboachan

…and a Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/236834809779302/

>>11001
Sadly, last.fm is dead. A few months ago, they stopped their streaming service. So now, all you can do is scrobble songs you already have. No more radio, no more discovering cool new indie bands. It's a damn shame. I've been a member since 2005 and I'm really going to miss it. I don't know where to go from here. Bandcamp? Pandora? Soundcloud? None of those have the quality and convenience afforded by last.fm.

>>11002
Using last.fm for the radio is kinda derpmode if you ask me. I've always found tons of new music through it, just by glancing through related artists and plugging them into Youtube or Bandcamp to see what they have to offer and buying if good. *shrug*

>>11003
I don't like to copypaste endlessly. It's tedious and feels like work. That's why programmers exist is to make things more intuitive and streamlined while still giving you plenty of options. The embedded player and the android app allowed you to simply skip a song if you weren't into it and then it would move on to the next song/artist. Some stations were better than others so this feature helped to streamline the process instead of having to take extra steps to listen to artists you may or may not want to listen to. I don't know why they took away the streaming. Maybe the internet media streaming lobby shut them down.

>>10976
ooh, which message boards?

some irc channels, scp foundation, some other reclusive boards

I frequent 4chan daily, but I mainly stick to the /vg/ board.

A few months ago I picked up vaping (electronic cigarettes) as a new hobby and have been frequenting the Electronic Cigarette Forum ever since.

That's about it, I'm more of a lurker than a poster.

>>11024
Sup fellow vaper! I learned a lot from the #ECF IRC. They have a link to it on the top of the page. After I was up to speed, I became one of the experts and helped the newbies that would come in with questions like I used to do. You should join the Juice Junkies group on Facebook, it's Rip Trippers' group. What are you vaping? I have a copper 18650 mech mod with a Patriot dripper. Inside are twisted 28g dual microcoils at 0.4 ohms. It's awesome and I haven't needed to change my set up in months except to change the cotton wicks. I don't go on the IRC anymore though because it became a waste of time. That's why I like Juice Junkies, although I only lurk there to see the new gear and coils.

>>11032
Oh hello there, nice to meet a fellow vaper here. To be honest, I'm still getting my feet wet. I'm currently fiddling around with my first RDA, an Igo-L. I'm quite happy with it, especially considering its laughable price at 12 bucks. I use 26/28 gauge kanthal single coil builds, duals are a bit of a pain to build on it. Currently considering a Magma clone as my next dripper.

Before that I've used a few cig-a-likes, a rubbish CE4 clone set, a Protank Mini 3 and an Aerotank. Not sure if I'll get into mechs and sub-ohming, I'm quite content with my Spinner II's at the moment. I think I want to try a DNA powered mod first.

I have no Facebook and I find Rip Tripper's style a bit too hyper for my liking. He reminds me of Billy Mays in a way.

I'm part of a small Tumblr community, the Vinesauce community on Steam, and iScribble.

I WAS once part of 4chan, but that died out like a quick flame. Made it even more dead to me when they started attacking Tumblr blogs…

>>11080
>>11080
Tumblr was asking for it. Don't act like you didn't enjoy the attention.

>>11080
My blog is so small that I doubt 4chan or even my followers know it exists.

>>11080
>I WAS once part of 4chan, but that died out like a quick flame
>Made it even more dead to me when they started attacking Tumblr blogs
I doubt you were actually part of the 4chan community to begin with then.

a steam group, a hiki forum called hikiverse(I think), used to be part of a few guilds in ro and gw2 but that's all dead now

and of course 4chan

I just want to say that leaving 4chan was one of the best things I've ever done for myself

>>11161
Seconded. I would spend 2-3 days at a time just binge-reading threads mostly devoid of meaningful content and saving reaction images I'd never use again. These days I choose to lurk Something Awful or the Unholy Trinity of chans for outsiders… or actually do something productive instead.

>>11166
>and saving reaction images I'd never use again
Yep, I did that. Seeing my reaction folder pass the 1,500 item mark was one of the things that made me go, "Alright, that's it - this shit has gone way too far." I'm really glad I don't go there anymore.

>>11170
>1,500
fuck, I've got at least 7,300

>>11161
What are you doing now?

>>11172
I know. It's not that much.

>>11161
Leaving a website was also the best accomplishment in my life.

>>11161
I still visit it daily, but I monitor the clock so I don't lose myself in endlessly reading threads. Which I did do in the past and it was awful how much time it melted away.

>>11170
>>11171

Oh my god reaction images. I'm glad I don't do that anymore. Most of the ones I use now are screenshots [from their 3DS] and drawings from friends with moments and facial expressions that perfectly fit any scenario I come across.

>>11161
same

I frequent thebackalleys, /x/, Personality Cafe, and the INTP forums.
I visit thebackalleys every other day or so, and the others once or twice a month.

DatNode IRC, 420chan IRC, lots of fucking IRC (like 40 channels), not much else.

>>12128
>thebackalleys
I had no clue what that was then looked it up and found this: http://www.thebackalleys.com/forum/the-inflatable-fun-house/?PHPSESSID=fb205f492b36a14ef2670bbd37b6be0f

What a magical place.

A few irc channels and LINE groups.

i lurk a lot of places but i only post anywhere but here rarely. i do go on smashboards and kc-mm and post more often than i do on other places but still mostly to lurk. i go on datnode, other places on irchighway, and a few places on rizon as far as irc goes. i also keep tabs on the local gaming community by using there community groups.

4chan was the entirety of my online involvement for countless years, primarily /a/. I decided to head off in my own direction when I saw the place really going to the dogs. Though no matter how long I'm away from it, my time there will always be an influence on who I am and what I do online.

Now I just lurk around hard to find hole-in-the wall chans and IRC's. The quieter and more out of the way they are the better, there's a real charm to these little lost corners of the web. I'm less involved online as a whole, so I'm content to just explore the back-alleys.

>>12132
>the inflatable

Would you believe that it used to be worse?

What are some good irc channels? All of the irc channels I've gone into are just a few friends talking to each other.
