discussion Does this remind anyone else of the old internet?

[levinel]

I can't remember the last time I felt part of a community all trying to achieve a goal like this. As crazy as it is, I haven't been on a forum where everyone is talking positively in a long while. Most of my online interaction now sadly consists of conflict on Reddit. When and what online community was the last that you felt like this?

That's actually a very honest take. Yes, I was quite frustrated when seeing the new rules. However, the people's encouragement has been really surprising. Especially in my introduction thread.

Kinda, yeah. Gives some nostalgia? vibes.

When historians in future decades look back as to when the Renaissance in online discussions began, they will point to this site as the epicenter.

MSN Chatooms, AOL. Brings back good memories.

To be honest: those 2 don't

It only reminds me that I'm using time here that I could use better elsewhere...

Well it is a forum. Concept which almost already died for good. Now all you have is some stupid fb groups.

 

[Twerky]

yeah now that you think about it i started thinking of when forums were the shit. with new stuff you're trading familiarity and bonding with faster and more frequent new and different things

i feel like everything nowadays is "evolving" towards shortcircuiting your brain through easy dopamine through lightning fast novelty... but although that is inherently pleasing, it doesn't make it a good thing

I miss the days of the forums and IRC...

I think it's that everyone on this site has a common shared interest combined with more rewards for likes gives an incentive to not be overly combative in differing opinions

Euh.....

 

[Nemesis1782]

Euh.....

I mean the days when these things were the standard and of fairly high quality.

There was a period in Omegle history when people would just connect with a stranger and the first and only thing they'd say would be PASTA, then disconnect. We never knew why we did it, but we did it nevertheless.

It's also far easier to be open and honest about kinks among other deviants
Like your profile pic btw. which game is it from? Reminded me a bit of Kali from Harem Hotel

Who knew horniness is what brought people together...

I really missed posting on forums, the old times when used to collect forum points to buy a banner made in photoshop.
