>>33716
Can we have a watch party just us last 3 posters of /AM/?

3 people? That's like the entire userbase of /am/ during its all-time peak.

>>33719

>>33720

It's weird to look back and remember that /aM/ and its culture were a thing at one point. So few people will ever know of the wonders that went on in there.

>>33750
elaborate

>>33751
imagine how many hidden gems shone brightly never to be appreciated for their worth
one dude in a meta thread about 'explaining jokes' posted a cap from some Suiseiseki board I never heard a thing about, maybe similarly at least some slivers of /aM/ will find it's way elsewhere and live on

>>33751

It was a solid attempt at creating a truly new anime/random culture without trying to be an old /a/ or /jp/ copycat. If only /intl/ had won the war. And I thought I had that edited image of an ideal 8chan where /am/ was one of the top boards with 2k daily posters, but I guess not.

If anyone wants I can zip and upload my /am/ folder in it's entirety. It's hard to believe the height of 8chan was so long ago.

>>33754
I'm interested, there's always something that I might've missed

>>33754
what still strikes me the most is how similarly we thought at one point (see pic's >>5491 for example)
I never experienced anything like that, even on a board that was just me and few IRL friends back when I was a teenager
it was by no means perfect, I'm still irked by some meta disagreements I had with couple of you but there were others with whom I feel like, if I were to ever meet them in person, I could communicate with them without words

>>33756
eh

well, desperate as it was, it was worth a try at least
I pray you've at least found a place where you feel at home again, depressed dude

Sorry guys I'm back with my virus folder. Also I'm too shy to share my discord and become frens my bad lmao

There goes my plan of reminiscing about the old days with some drink in hand.
Well, I half expected that, you know. Gut punch from reality only hurts when you don't see it coming, but eventually you learn not to get your hopes up for anything and you're set.

I've browsed the folder, thanks, but there's more to look back on, gotta update the /aM/soleum.
Despite everything it still feels nice to see one's shit saved by someone else. And as for the hyper-enlightened funposting pill don't diss neurotics. I'm neurotic as heck, my depression is the fucking strong but... (there was more here however I decided to cut it out in order not to sound like a douche) but when 'this isn't real, you're welcome here, it's okay to have fun' switch gets flipped on in a neurotic person magical things can happen.

Eh, /aM/, you bunch of self destructive retards, you've made me feel more alive than I ever felt...

No one will read it but I feel like talking about it so fuck it. As far as the pill in pic goes I don't believe there was a time before neuroticism on imageboards. Internet in general used to be a haven for nerds, autists, neurotics, creeps, pariahs etc. - those are the types that used PCs for recreation back then. Consider Rule 1&2 of the Internet (those are pretty old) - reference aside, keeping low profile is neurotic in nature. You can say most of those 'rules' are fun oriented but that isn't a contradiction. It's only when normalfags bred out of control that the neurotic grumpiness started to get represented so strongly.

I've watched some interviews with people on VR-chat saying how they're usually the closed up, silent type but they don't experience social anxiety in VR, like their brain doesn't register it being real and the blockades don't trigger. I think it was similar for social misfits and imageboards. Not only did they have the mental leisure of unreality but finally they joined a tribe of their own, a people who shared their culture and life baggage.
Maybe I didn't connect the dots perfectly but that's kind of the reason why I preached against realitycuckery and taking things seriously in general so strongly it might've seemed whiny.

>>33771
oh, when was that ever posted here...

>>33771
I read it.

>>33773

>>33775
