I have no idea who you're directing this at, but as always you're extremely arrogant, to insist that you're right, you're the only rational one, everyone else's perception of reality is wrong, even though you have no evidence, and that the reason that this subforum isn't good for us isn't because of meaningless shitposting non-stop, it's becasue we're not "engaging" with the community in the right way. Absolute nonsense, the reason why I don't bother engaging is that I wouldn't get any satisfaction from participating in the asinine behavior like spamming one letter posts that was going on just before this argument. I liked the old posters because they were better, and so I engaged with them and therefore was "d" with them, I didn't become "d" with them and then like them because of that, that's putting the cart before the horse. I engage with any sort of posting that interest me, regardless of the poster, and 97% of posts here do not interest me in any way.Railey2 wrote: 6a2u27
you should compare dear kai99 to the ''i'm turning japanese''-sort of thread from the screenshot.Aurani wrote: k3n52
Are you actually TRYING to compare someone like Wojjan, the greatest of all shitposters, to something like "dear kai99", to name a random thread? Because that's the kind of shitposter I like, compared to a normal, mindless shitposter. Just because people like Wojjan existed, doesn't mean there weren't shitposters back then who are the same as the ones I'm talking about right now.
The ONLY side I stand on is my own side. I'm explaining my point of having a problem with people who REPEATEDLY (note the word - to answer Comfy's "yet you call them imbeciles") fail to contribute ANYTHING of note.
As for OT stinking less being a myth: "only 25% of people will be here after 4 years" - so if the other 75% are replaced with mindless turnips (it's just an example, chill your tits, since I already know that you want to take the number literally), compared to there being a 50-50 in the past, doesn't that prove that it's filthier now than it was before?
I personally think there were more serious and intelligent people active back then, and by that point I shall remain until you provide solid evidence for the contrary, in which case I'll change my opinion. Nostalgia has no play in it, as it's my rational conclusion after having been here for 4 and a half + 2 years.
And wojjan posted so much shit on here. SO much shit.
i don't need to explain to you how sides work, you're not autistic. But here you go anyway: if, in a discussion, you hold a view that is very similar to the views of a group of people, it makes sense to group you in with them in the context of the discussion and address the arguments of your ''group'' as a whole.
the numbers are just made up, take them as you wish.
The point is: How you view peoples posts depends greatly on what your affiliation to them is. That's not a secret, there are things like the Halo-effect, in-group out-group dynamics etc. The whole wide area of social psychology confirms that people tend to be biased in favor of people that they've known for longer and had personal relations with.
if those people disappear and get replaced with others, you'll feel left out in that new group and may even become bitter over what was lost.
its a normal process and people regularly fall for it, even though its so painfully unnecessary.
They weren't replaced with 75 percent mindless turnips, you're just bad at adjusting. Trust me when i say that its not the first time for me to notice this. it's happened in virtually every community i've been a part of, multiple times.
Your conclusion isn't rational, it's biased in favor of people you know and like.
Go find your own evidence. Talk to abraker, maybe, probably my favourite shitposter on here, or talk to https://osu-ppy-sh.jeuxcrack.net/u/lol
or talk to me, hell i count as a new too, don't i?
the talking to yourself part was just a diss, guys please. its what you do when someone posts a reply thats not worth a proper response, but leaving it as is would feel weird so you do that.
Its a problem that persists in every community: As a community becomes more popular and/or accessible, the mean age of the community tends to go down, while at the same time the count of the lowest denominator goes up.
This results in a large increase of shitty shitposts for communities like OT.
The old community of OT used to be far more inaccessible and unfriendly to newcomers than it is now, kept itself smaller and "regulated" by shunning people outside of the community. I wont say its a better or even good time compared to back then (people outside of the clique definitively had a shitty time here (hi sonatora!), but it prositively meant that a much larger margin of posts was relevant and fitting for the arbitary judgements of the existing clique, ergo a illusion of better quality.
In some ways it is still the same in this regard, but with time flowing of the old clique get replaced by newcomers which softened up things for yet more newcomers. Or you could say, the cliques standarts for quality or what even qualifies as shitpost changed as the people in it changed. If you are one of those who are from the oldies, you may find those changes distasteful.
And if little to newcomes come things like Tuuba happen, with time. Man is it quiet there now.
Change is inevitable, and change is scary for most people.
As to why i posted? I saw content relevant to my interrests (discussion), if it werent there my activity would still be as dead as the last few months. If i only saw the oneliners that dominate the vast majority of this thread now (and perhaps always have) i wouldnt have posted. Its not content i like after all.
Also do we have a selfie thread somewhere? I belive i never posted a pic of myself but im sure a few of those who still remain are curious about my looks as ever. My lifes better now as do i feel better about myself now, so im not as opposed to showing myself as i was before.

Honestly, I see some hostility towards Wojjan from you. Why? You'll see a lot of old s reminiscing her because she was actually a fun person to be around with because her jokes made sense. She stopped posting 2 years ago, which is around the same time you ed, so you might have missed out a bunch of jokes from her posts (she did a lot of inside jokes). I believe that a big reason why the older s are unsatisfied with the current state it's because they don't find the shitposting FUNNY. Honestly, neither do I; there's nothing funny about parallel posting or ye ode ot. If the new s like doing this, we shouldn't stop them having their own fun, but if other people don't they'll just make themselves look more like douchebags if they force their spam across the board. AND THIS IS WHY ITT 2 EXISTS IN THE FIRST PLACE !
I never said there wasn't always shitposting, but now there is barely any reasonable discussion. Most of the good stuff has been in ITT2, now there is very little.Railey2 wrote: 6a2u27
B1rd there was always meaningless non-stop shitposting on OT, side by side with reasonable discussions. Nothing has changed. Go back 100 pages and what you will find is always random shit and spam threads, with little good stuff in between.
completely unrelated but your page banner is fucking hilarious it's exactly what I thought about when I saw that sceneRaspberriel wrote: 2f96m

I understand you're trying to feel morally superior, but come on, my dude. Petty revenge isn't a good basis for society or law in general.

If that's the conclusion you came to about my post, then I'm afraid that any further correspondence with you would be futile because it is clearly evident that you are a mindless retard. You would be doing society a favor by shooting your useless piece of shit brain into bits, preferably directly into the faces of your parents so they can taste the blood and guts of the revolting shitbag they spawned into this world.
