Somebody's been spamming the submissions post with old secrets, apparently (for what actual purpose, I'm not sure). Just give me a heads up and I'll take the repeats down.

How can pics of headless people and hentai help you though?

(Anonymous) 2011-11-01 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
because obviously that's all 4chan ever is!!!!! aren't you well-informed.

(Anonymous) 2011-10-31 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I hope you distance your mental well being from it pretty soon. I remember when I first discovered 4chan, and I had a honeymoon period too, but it's a massive group of people with no accountability. They are going to end up saying something that will hurt you.

(Anonymous) 2011-10-31 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, never get the idea that these people are actually your friends. The minute they spot a weakness or opening they will tear you to pieces with unholy glee. And laugh about it.

But then if you are part of this com anyway, you already know that. And you probably do it to others.

(Anonymous) 2011-11-01 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
from the way the secret is worded, it sounds like they've been on it long enough to know the ins and outs and are well past a honeymoon period

this tbh

it was more than a "honeymoon period", i was into 4chan for a while, but eventually the misogyny and shit just became too much for me. i also don't like it when people act like the whole of 4chan is equivalent to /b/, but i'm not about to defend its integrity either.

[identity profile] dangerousdame.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
It's been three years for me. I've been pissed off at people on there plenty of times, but a couple of the boards (/tg/ especially) are enjoyable enough that I can pretty easily hang out there.

tw: sexual abuse, transphobia, victim blaming, suicidal thoughts

(Anonymous) 2011-10-31 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
when i was molested by my doctor for being trans and i tried talking to a support group online, no one believed me. apparently "someone in that position would never do that" (because teachers never bully their students, police never fuck up, and parents never harm their children either, right? authority figures are fucking flawless) or i was "overreacting because i was turned on." i, a ftm, dealt with my female obgyn fingering me* and no one cared. not only that, but when i told her that i was trans (no hormones or anything, btw), she blamed me for my health problems (i was 13! i was pretty much a crossdresser at the time) and treated me like i was delusional. no one even complained about my doctor's transphobia being bullshit or anything, all they read was "MAN WAS FONDLED AND TURNED ON, NOT ABUSE" i guess.

4chan, or at least the /adv/ice board, comforted me, gave me a few phone numbers to call, and only one(!!!) person was an asshole, but a few anons told them off for being a prick.

it hurt so much that not one person believed me in that support forum. i went into a depression and felt a little suicidal after that, and i don't know what would've happened if i didn't cry to 4chan.

(* - i know, it sounds weird, but i definitely know the difference between "a professional examining my vagina and moving her finger slightly" and "a sick fuck rubbing her finger against my god damn g-spot" i've masturbated before, i think i know what the fuck happened. plus, my second obgyn examining me was nowhere near that invasive and awkward.)

I'm so sorry you had to go through that anon <3

Re: tw: sexual abuse, transphobia, victim blaming, suicidal thoughts

[identity profile] oflittlebrain.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
WOAH i am so sorry that that happened to you, that is fucking insane. and yeah, in that case, thank god 4chan was there.

(Anonymous) 2011-10-31 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
hey op, if it helps you through tough stuff without causing more trouble, I can't hate :)
I do sometimes wonder if they get too much of a bad rap because of b and anon. I'm definitely of the '4chan is a fucking frightening abyss' mindset and stay far away, but I have friends who are quite 'normal' and will swear up and down that it's fine and just those 2 groups that get out of hand. They'll show me something cool and it will be from there so hey, who am I to judge

[identity profile] countess-k.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
I hope you don't mean /b/. There are a number of different boards on 4chan and some of them are saner than others. But if you claim /b/ helped you be a better person I'm sorry, I have to call troll.

(Anonymous) 2011-11-01 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
not op but who the hell are you to tell people what can and cannot make them feel better? yes I know what /b/ is and what an absolute mess of a cesspool it can be but I also know that the strangest, smallest, most unexpected things can help people come to terms with issues going on in their lives whether it's through positives or negatives and it's rude of you to call troll over that.

It's hard to get people to realize that all the boards aren't /b/. Yeah people are still dicks but you can usually spot the trolls and move on if you don't want any part of that.

I love /co/.

[identity profile] tamabonotchi.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
I hear you, OP!

(Anonymous) 2011-11-01 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
i think this is probably the only way in which 4chan is at all similar to sfd_anon

and i definitely belive you nona, there are some real good moments in 4chan. they're just too few and far between for me to bother with

[identity profile] dangerousdame.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
I'm glad it's helped you. 4chan has been a really mixed bag in my experience- there are some horrible, horrible people on there, but if you know where to look, there are also a lot of genuinely decent ones.

[identity profile] leinyan.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
I feel like so many people who bad mouth it have either never been on the site at all and are only basing their idea of the site on second hand horror stories or went to like one board for 5 minutes.

[identity profile] marsdragon.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Pretty much. You have to find the right board and know the culture, but it's not all terrible. Nearly any LJer would feel relatively comfortable in /cm/, for instance.

4chan is my savior too...

(Anonymous) 2011-11-01 09:04 am (UTC)(link)
...but in a different way. I am always on /adv/ and /x/. I love to give advice and to help people. I generally care about improving things, if that would be the world or an individual. I have been through a lot in my life, and I am a bit older than the average Internet user that is into community sites these day.

4chan, thanks to being anonymous, offers me a place to completely be myself and to do what I enjoy doing: writing my opinions and thoughts on subject matters, AND helping people out.

I have found I cannot do that under a name. I would love to be the shoulder to cry on for people on my username sites, but it fails every time I try to be nice to someone, or to offer my advice.

Why? It is growing ever popular to be an asshole on the Internet (outside of 4chan). People are latching their assholery onto the usernames, because the more of a jerk you are to someone and the more like-minded you are (not having an opinion that differs from the mainstream), the cooler you.

I have legitimately cared about helping a lot of people, but 90% of the time that I have done so, some person would barge their way in (either in the conversation itself, or on my own page comments/lj) thinking they are all badass for "calling me out" on being apparently fake.

I've heard, "lol you are so fake" more times than I can count, because I have tried to offer people my help and told them they didn't have to censor themselves around me.

These bystanders would then proceed with the whole "spechual snowflake" BS that is such a fad to throw at people, because we had opinions and I talked to people about their demons such as being molested or abused.

It was simply horrible, and it got me harassed so much since people viewed me as a white knight.

So 4chan is the only place where I can be myself and feel happy by making other people feel happy. As I said before, this is thanks to being anonymous, AND more importantly, that the threads move rather fast...so nothing is permanent for too long.

This is in contrast to say, an LJ community where you can be anonymous as well. The threads/comments are permanent (unless a mod wants to delete them or the group allows the user to delete them), so it offers time for people to troll/attack forever.

I've even had people in FS here dissect a thread I was actively trying to help someone in, only for some obsessive anti-fan of mine to name drop and point out to everyone that it was /me/ and that "___is just being a fake attention whore again"...despite that I was under anonymous.

Anyway, it was after that kind of stuff that I just moved to /adv/ and /x/ to offer my insight.

Yeah yeah, inb4 "cool story bro".

Hey, fellow /x/phile. I agree with your comment.

Re: 4chan is my savior too...

(Anonymous) 2011-11-01 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
That sucks. ._. I'm glad you found a good place to offer advice.

(Anonymous) 2011-11-01 03:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I hear you- 4chan never fails to cheer me up when I'm feeling down.

Most of the haters are the sf_drama types who can't stand anything that doesn't fit their perfectly prescribed politically correct boxes. And if there's one thing that 4chan is definitely not, it's politically correct.

I just started visiting frequently and I love it for the amazing art gems :D

and it makes me want to "drawfag" to keep a thread alive... and I could use that motivation these days.
