They're all on Disboard servers, probably. It sucks, because socializing with several people at once feels like rape, but no one is making traditional individual ads anymore.

>>34810841
All the good people went offline, you're stuck with the dregs now

>>34810841
it's because this board is overrun with troons, fags, scammers, catfishes, and sex pest perverts. what's the point of posting an ad when you're going to get 1 of the 5 above? That's why I only shitpost and harass the troons and fags that post.

>>34810848
Ok, but how do they find disboard servers??? they all have like 5 people and are dead

>>34810860
where do people meet new people then???

>>34810847
Chickn I don't really know you very well, but I remember seeing your posts like 6 years ago. Why are you even still on here? Surely you've found meaningful connection by now

I'm not even looking for love anymore, friends will do

generally losing my will to communicate

>>34810878
I know you'll find true love one day fren

in the couple years after the coof things were pretty active and I met a dozen or so people off this board who were cool but a year or two after that and the only people are freaks and gooners.

Where do I find people who aren't troons, gooners, or woke normies? I feel like I'm going crazy and the entire world has become a thousand times more fake and gay.

>>34810841
The people who post here are mostly unbearable now. The servers are the same 10 posted over and over again, and just gay circlejerks or people who speak like they dont knkw how to act off the internet. The individual threads are 90% trannies or women saying shit like "looking for paypig" or the equivalent. Good people lurk it seems like, but posting in a sfw thread is a hail mary for hoping one cool person with conversation skills adds you among the dozen idiots to respond.

The internet was homogenized into a bland soup of irony poisoned porn addicts. Combine that with this board being NSFW and having zero moderation, then let that fester for a decade and you end up with a few dozen gooners and schizos spamming every single thread with basically zero normal people left to post or lurk.

It's an unsolvable problem now, needed to be addressed at least 5+ years ago. You're left to deal with dating apps, reddit, or random infinitely fragmented discord servers.

You will never be able to go back, and it is only going to get worse from here on out. We all missed the boat for making connections with people that have the inclination towards niche basketweaving forums.

I've been looking for people to connect with on multiple websites, and it's all the same: people lose interest quuckly, don't get attached, ghost, etc.
I guess your chances of finding someone here are better if you make an ad that is unique and avoid using social medias like Discord (most attention whores and people with a short attention span are there). Then, at least from my experience, you can have a somewhat decent conversation, even if it won't lead to anything. Also, avoid all tripfags/namefags like a plague, they're the worst ones when it comes to sites like 4chan.

>>34811146
hey don’t diss us schizos we’re a lot better off than the gooners of the world

I'm new to /soc/, just got into it like a month ago. Fuck, I really hope I can find a hookup on here.

>>34811252
You're the problem this thread is about, faggot. And if you weren't too chopped to get a hookup you'd already have one IRL, the blackpill doesn't stop applying on specific websites
>>34811247
You're not a schizo. Actual schizos are writing page-long gibberish and amputating parts of themselves, you're just some normalfag who thinks he's quirky

>>34811264
That was very rude of you and I only recently really wanted to pursue women. I never tried a dating app or whatever before.

im sorry im not having an episode 24/7 dude i guess my doctor must’ve misdiagnosed me :/

>>34811275
There's financial incentive to telling you retards who watched "based schizopilled" TikToks that you have serious conditions. Similar for the party roasties that have "autism" or "DID" retards whose alters are all anime girls. It's common to have a symptom or two of a condition, but they're often overdiagnosed now for the reasons I mentioned + people wanting a lack of accountability for their shitty lives. Sorry fag, you're not schizophrenic because you threw the plate of tendies back at your mom and started yelling about Jesus once

>>34810841
i met an obese kethead catfish that's my experience

>>34811307
i wonder why they say that. truly a head scratcher

has it ever occurred to you that people can be mentally ill for reasons totally unrelated to TikTok. like just because TikTok is a popular app and just because someone gets diagnosed with something other than anxiety or depression while also using tt doesn’t mean they’re faking it because they saw one TikTok video LMAOO

those cringe compilations rotted your brain… maybe you should actually learn how psychiatrists assess patients before you start ragebaiting. also you gotta be TRYING to get on that side of TikTok so what’s your fyp like dude are you sure you’re not projecting

your level of ignorance is living proof that you can always get worse so thank you dude. hope i never turn out like you

>>34811331
The primary vector for all mental illness is social contagion and social conditioning. Automatically assuming that social contagion is the root cause of infamous disabilities is correct like 70% of the time. And no one really cares if you're the 30% that isn't LARPing.
>maybe you should actually learn how psychiatrists assess patients
The entire field of psychiatry was demystified ages ago much to their dismay. Everyone realized it was a retarded soft-science which is why it rapidly devolved into social media flavor of the month shit that women try on like shoes.

>>34811344

>Schizophrenia is diagnosed when someone has at least two symptoms: delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, disorganized or catatonic behavior, or negative symptoms lasting at least 6 months (with 1 month of active psychosis), causing functional decline, and not explained by substances, mood disorders, or medical conditions.

I totally get you, I posted once in a sfw thread and still got gooners and people looking for a relationship, despite making it clear I was mainly lonely and wanted to discuss visual novels and games.

If anyone wants to just hangout now, call and maybe show me a game/movie (I can also dl any movie and stream) we can hangout and have fun, maybe even make more friends (I'm chronically lonely and I've been praying to god to please make life less miserable)

you can add discord or fluxer (prefer discord but I get if people want to move away now)

fluxer: denpaheroineofdespair#6722

>>34811691
not an opinion, look it up that's the requirement for diagnosis
maybe you have real schizophrenia but nowadays most don't, they have a collection of symptoms interpreted by retarded experts as schizophrenia
if you are here on 4chan genuinely trying to argue that mental illness diagnosis' aren't massively overinflated then you might want to get diagnosed as retarded because
1) it's true
2) if it's not true it's the commonly held belief on 4chan

>I totally get you, I posted once in a sfw thread and still got gooners and people looking for a relationship
this is mind boggling to me. Most adds I get are just general social incompetents which is whatever but I legitimately can't understand the mindset of these people.
I once posted in a sfw thread, got an instant dick pick as an add, posted in the same thread telling people to avoid that person (with proof), and got temp banned for "harassing camwhores." I wonder if the jannies here are the same retarded gooners who spam add people like this and that's how the board culture has gotten so awful.
I haven't gotten a meaningful add in like 6 months now despite posting my tag pretty often so I give up and just lurk, vainly hoping someone that I think I'll click with will post (it's a dumb desire)

The people having success are invisible, so all you get is confirmation bias about how shit this board is. Which it is, don't get me wrong, but I've met a handful of chill people on here by posting in threads that filter gooners, i.e. threads that require you to actually have a hobby or interest in order to participate. "SFW" is far too general and so you'll get all the detritus of the board collecting there, whereas for example looking at the catalog right now
>kin thread
>visual artist thread
>furry friend thread (questionable)
>technology/programming thread
>sexy audio threads (questionable)
>jpop thread
are all threads that will be more likely to result in some form of genuine connection because any friendships formed there will be out of mutual interests and have a barrier of entry higher than "lonely".

In other words, get hobbies and interests outside of yapping and gooning you fucking losers.

>>34814932
I think I got two total adds from the furry thread and one of them didn't read my post whatsoever. That one also appears to just be gooners unfortunately

dead..... even this thread....

>>34810841
In a word, trannies. Most remotely normal people have fled this place since the majority of the board is the worst, most repulsive people on Earth, and I'm pretty sure this is by design. I have filters to rule out blacked shit, tranny shit, gay shit and dick rate threads and right now that's protecting me from 22 threads. There have been days I've checked here where there's only like five threads not filtered.

The men left aren't men. I see so many people claiming to be submissive men and femdoms on this board, in real life 96% of women's top fantasy is being sexually dominated.

Most of the men here are trying to find someone to fool around with and hoping something ongoing forms out of it. Most of the women left, well for starters at least half of them aren't actually women and the other half have insanely unrealistic demands. You can never see or hear what I look like, I don't want to hear about you, I just want to talk about me. You have to keep the conversation going though, I'm just going to give one to three word answers then call you boring, maybe toss out a couple other insults and unadd you. Then if you're 10/10 maybe I'll demand sex from you.

Nine out of ten women I've spoken to it's this same insane pattern of "Don't bring up sex, but if I do you better do whatever weird unsatisfying shit I want, like roleplay or whatever." "play roblox, a game that looks like shit and is only used by pedophiles, 11 year olds and mentally ill girls in their 20's with me." "Put the call on and keep it on all night so I can monopolize your time even when I'm not conscious because I'm used to sleeping with another man in my bed and I want to remind you of this every single day, you don't get any free time." "I want you to obsess over me but also not expect anything of me or ask any personal questions." "I'm looking for someone who house and feed me without receiving anything in return or having any motivation to. I can't cook or clean and I smell and do drugs"

>>34810841
New wave of younger users who are less and less adapted to social interaction or going outside. Also, having met people off here before a lot of characters just aren't great to hang with. Some were good but those connections don't last. Of the meets that have happened these days, a few young guys are doing it but haven't met any older anons which is disappointing. God forbid you live outside the US too.

Lonely people aren't meeting each other, this is a thing for our generation

Here let me give you my typical experience here.
>I'm a 23F into ddlg
>Sounds hot, *adds*
>Hey, looking for a new daddy?
>Yeah, but I don't like your pfp
>I can change if you-
>*blocked*

Girls will choose some bullshit and block you over it. End of conversation. I really hope you never make a single misstep or do anything that remotely causes an ick because you'll be instantly blocked.

Females post and get a 1000 adds so of course they feel justified in being super picky. But even if you are perfect they're stupid whores and wouldn't realize it anyway and that's why all these women will be single into their 30s. Fucking give someone a chance and stop blocking them at the first ick.

My issue is that so many people on here are just ugly as fuck. I don’t like to be shallow but my GOD, some of you people are actual orcs from LOTR and it’s scary.

>>34810841
Discord is for groomers and Catfishing and not much else.

>>34820620
Girls don't get a 1000 adds, more like 0-20, very few will get more than that and even then not much.

>>34820620
Ironic considering building a functioning relationship is even more difficult for women than it is for men.

Especially for crazy pyscho bitches.

The best they can do is let someone fuck them for two weeks and try desperately to hang onto them like that.

They think being super picky and choosey will stop that and instead it makes it worse. Because women have shit taste and wouldn’t know how to romance a garbage bag of shit.

>>34818068
TRUKE absolute TRUKE

Don’t online date weird bitches, if you want to waste your time on women go do it in real life. I swear to god they aren’t any different in real life than they are on the internet.

But at least it’s quicker and could actually turn into something if you’re willing to entertain women’s stupid bullshit.

If you’re just in it for the sex then that makes it even easier.

>>34818993
You’re either a woman running cover for this stupidity or a brainless simp that gets no pussy or even worse a cuck.

>>34820620
you're a retarded simping gooner who thinks he's a "daddy" yet would change his online pfp at the drop of a hat for some roastie and gets rightfully filtered regardless. you're not in much position to complain about the state of soc when you're the exact cause of it, even though single motherhood probably caused you and you're not fully at fault for your situation

They were normies and got a relationship because it's really not hard to find a "soulmate" when your only interests are being a hikki, anime and video games.
1% of truly mentally unstable, ugly or foids being picky above their grade are still here.

I got tired of posting here because guess what, chasing mentally girls online on the faint hope of a barely fesible LDR doesn't fix your mental health issues and avoidant lifestyle, the very thing you're looking for a relationship to help with in the first place
It's unironically so bad trying to find love here that it's pushed me to work on myself IRL, a blessing in disguise

Pretty much. Zero moderation will make faggots and troons create 50 threads of their own. There are at least 20 identical dick threads or lgbt threads up anytime but the "no duplicates" rule never gets enforced, for example.

Possible solutions we have discussed before: make /soc/ blue and make /lgbt/ orange. That way fags and troons can be contained on their own board and this board can return to actually meeting people.

>>34820718
why do retards like this who only value appearance not go on tinder or something
I genuinely don't understand going to an anonymous imageboard (where the appeal is you won't be judged by superficial characteristics) to judge by superficial characteristics
are you just African? 50 IQ? Both?

Stupid question but has there ever been a /soc/ meetup like other boards have had?

>>34826696
>going to an anonymous imageboard (where the appeal is you won't be judged by superficial characteristics)

I don't know where the fuck you got this idea but it's one of the dumbest things I've ever read lol. You expect not to be judged by superficial characteristics on 4chan? Have you been using this site for a year? Have you only ever been on this board?

>Crown and tradition

>>34826499
Yeah the fact that the meetups board is combined with "cams" says it all. They need to make the meetups board sfw

>>34826499
unfortunately, even in the very unlikely event we get blue /soc/, you'd get the same gooner homos rewriting their posts just enough that they can be technically "sfw". it's like the other guy said, these problems needed to be fixed a long time ago, and considering they can't properly moderate a single /soc/ i doubt gookmoot is in a hurry to make another

>>34810841

Enough reports (as per the site rules) makes each thread go the way of the dodo. Community enforcing sounds gay as fuck but it's the only choice we're left with if we want to improve a board with less than minimum moderation.
