I remember, when this board was good
| It's still good though..?
| what is so less good than it was
| I don't.
| I don't know man the only difference i sense is that there are more depressed people here than like two years ago. Still like this board tho.
| The only difference I feel is that this place has somehow become even less lively. Apart from that there have always been a lot of depressed lonely g/u/rls here, hasn't it?
| Did prim fuck suro?!
| I've just started calling everyone retards if they post "I jUsT dOnT kNoW hOw To KeEp On LiViNg" like ok retard if you want internet pity go the fuck to reddit or actually do it
| >>691290
I'm positive that was bait.
No one is actually so full of themselves that they'd think somebody even wants their pity.
| >>691292
Yes, it's bait. I've never seen anyone post "ok retard" in any venting threads.
Imagine making something like that up, lmao.
| op, completely agree
anytime somebody mentions they are trans they get called slurs and mentally disabled, anytime somebody mentions race you get ignorant idiots claiming racism is dead, and now this board is more filled with assholes than actually decent people
i check here like once a month now, but yeahhh this board is fucking rip if you want a conversation that does not become stupid arguments over shit. thanks for the memories danger/u/
| It's still pretty good. There are people who vent and there are threads that don't. If you don't like the vent ones then don't partake in them. ┐( ∵ )┌
| The worst thing about it is that the "baits" are all made by the same deranged individual, saying the same crap over and over again.
Those toxic threads also attract lots of undesirables, it's extremely sad to read someone say anon in here...
| This board is still pretty good. But I miss the more wholesome days.
The toxicity and racism gets to me so I almost never post anymore. I only lurk every now and then.
| >>691478
I don't think it's one guy. I used to bait racist trolls all the time when they started to show up and insert their politics in otherwise non-political threads.
They're very easy to bait too. There's almost a 100% response rate. But acting shitty towards them didn't work. For some reason they stick around even if they don't enjoy it. They sure get emotional when presented with science though.
Hopefully the wholesome era won't be over just because haters found this place.
| I dunno why people who are so strongly against LGBT acceptance hangs around danger/u/ but I suspect most racist online-people doesn't have many places to go, so they stick around wherever people are willing to interact with them.
| I wonder if there are a few 8chan refugees who ended up here or something. Talking/bait about racism is a little more common than it used to be. Anti LGBT has stayed pretty constant though, jurt 3 very loud people...
Mental health threads haven't changed either. They've been around for years at this point.
Overall danger/u/ hasn't changed much recently.
>>691478
We might need to be meaner to people who don't know the culture. Maybe time for a danger/u/ anti-immigration campaign.
| I just don't get how these people just waste so much time typing out slurs 24/7 and shitting on people because they're not white or part of the lgbt community on this board of all things...
I swear, some dude made a thread asking if some traits they had were signs of them being trans and they got spammed by "haha tran suicide percent" and then I linked actual studies disproving their transphobic bs and they still said "well reddit says tran bad!!!"
| And then the Sewerslvt thread a few months back where people realized she's trans and then called her fucking slurs when it was a thread asking about what people think of her music... like sure you don't need to like her music but don't be an asshole?
And then the racism thread recently... it's just so stupid that these people feel so insecure that they must invalidate and harass people on a small fucking board of all things.
| >>691614 they seem highly present here because they can be loud. this is a small board, so they can drown out replies. it's easy to samefag, so they can pretend to be many. moderation here is rather conservative, there's no 'user was banned for this post', and posts just disappear, which emboldens them. none of those things need to be changed, but they all make it easier for those people to be heard. the easiest way to deal with it is to ignore them; they're looking for a response.
| >>691586
I don't think being mean works and if it did it would destroy what made danger/u/ comfy. Or rather, I've tried it and it never works. Ignore them if they're too vague or trollish. If they actually display some kind of sentience then I think we should be nice to them. If someone responds with toxicity just continue being your awesome self and respond to OP accordingly.
But don't drain yourself. Don't force youtself to be nice to a leech or a sucker.
| y'all remember mewch? damn i wish that sucka was back
| It's mostly the same. There used to be more nonbinaries hanging out, now it's mostly suicidal thoughts sharing pool. Coincidence?
Some boards have changed, but only a bit.
/tech/ seems to be less of a trollhole than before.
/cyb/ is 3 gurls roleplaying as gurls.
/lain/ is /u/ but for lains.
/burg/ is angry, was burg before.
I dont know about /news/, it lost its almost charmful paranoia vibe to me.
| >>691639 I've found trolling back works if they seem to be actually mad, but not if it's just a low level trolling for fun or as a political weapon
One thing I've tried to do is trying to drop into threads with just few assholes to try to push them back to something good, but some threads are irredeemable
| >>691669
>/lain/ is /u/ but for lains
that board still exists?
>>691684
keep up the good work g/u/rl. it's hard to get a thread back on track, but it makes the board a lot nicer.
| Is anything changed? I just don't feel it.
| >>691693 yeah, I'm hoping if enough people do it it'll get boring to pick fights outside of new
>>691722 i do think there are more trolls than there used to be when i started going here but that may just be that i joined in a low point in the usual cycle
| When I was most active u was mostly a mix of actual random discussion, memes, and wholesome posts
D was lewd but wholesome, had some artists around the time too
Tech was one big meme about arch or Gentoo
A was for anime
Now u is cancer, tech is more serious with the occasional Gentoo, and d is mostly bait threads, or at least devolves into bait
A is for Russian bots
I'm basically only hear for tech now which is interesting I guess
| /v/ is all i usually browse now, granted it still has arguments often

| Those are some nice memories, but I should probably move on
