/jp/ - Otaku Culture

HELL to the NO. I wish they'd just fucking disappear. One of them is even stalking me because they miss me. Really irritating.

Now that you mention it, I've been a shitposter my whole internet life. One of the first things I did on the internet at the age of 13 was join a bunch of other like-minded troublemakers. We would spam the fuck out of forums and teamkill together in online games. I guess that is why I am so fond of /jp/.

I hope they are doing OK.

>>9328903
Is it a woman, a good looking woman?

I have a few online friends.
We all talk time to time.
On /jp/ bro helped me understand how to skype with my middle age Japanese woman friend.

if--If I ever see her in Japan I just might giver her my virginity if I get that far and she's still good looking

they all said '' I'll stay some days off, but don't worry, I'll back playing soon''

And then they never come back... ;_;

>>9328880

ive left every single one of them
now im alone, full of hate, and types like an autist

it seems that everytime i get close to someone
they end up admiring me
this puts pressure on me
i have to live up to the image they expect of me
it becomes a chore
i dont like chords

i left them
im alone now
bow

>>9328926
You must be a horrible friend.

Yes. But I made him mad and I haven't got the courage to go apologize or anything. It'd probably be best if I didn't really.

Where do you guys even make online friends? I always try to but I end up talking to them for like one day then never again

>>9328937
What did you do?

Yep, a long time ago
I missed those guys when this game was good

I want to reply to this thread as the topic seems rather interesting and definitely has the possibility to become a very good discussion vehicle where we can talk about looking back at our past experiences and also remember some of the good times that they provided over the years in our vast gaming life.

But I'm just feeling lazy, sorry nerds.

I am on the group Teamspeak server right now.

They're all playing all kinds of games. I only play a couple games of LoL each day. My microphone and my speakers are muted. I'm only there because we've all been together for 5 years. Once we stopped playing WC3 some time ago though I've been getting further away from them. We only talk for LoL games. When I try to share stuff on /jp/ with them they think it's stupid.

I miss the good old days of WC3 when we were all still immature high schoolers.

>>9328942

They grew up. Got into normal hobbies. They think I am wasting away playing touhou all day. I miss them.

I lost almost all of my friends at the end of 2011. ;_;

>>9328957
before the actions slides

>>9328941
I'm not even sure anymore. I think I was too apathetic or something? It doesn't matter, I'd just make him more mad if I said anything after all this time.

>>9328880
I've never had friends specific to games. I have online friends from when I was 13/14 that I wish I still knew, but other than that I am fine with my current online friends.
>>9328940
Meet them on /jp/, of course.

>>9328955
how do you even summon so much hate from within you

>>9328968

chatango

>>9328976
I started becoming more and more anti-social, and I felt like they didn't really care about me. I would chat with most of them for hours a day. But then, I was the one that started the conversations, and then I just got sick of it and stopped talking with them. Slowly and slowly each and one of them started to ditch me, and in the end, I had like less than 5 friends. But then, I started meeting a few people from /jp/ ( I don't really know how did I manage, but mostly IRC and Steam), and now I have like 10 or maybe 11 online friends from /jp/. They are all I have now, anon.

>Playing solo in MMO

for real /jp/ ?

>>9328995
I always do... Even when I end up in a /jp/ guild.

It's been nine months already...
My online life ran after the footprints left by my real life.

>>9328942
Oh god, I'm on there.
I can't even remember what game that was.

I had an online friend who suddenly turned into a total dick, so I just had to stop talking to him. It's kinda scary, we used to get along really well, but it's like he's a completely different person now.

Sorta. But I really don't care. I have too short of a temper to give any fucks.

>>9328918
I remember when I was young I spent 2 years shitting up a certain forum. Spamming threads, pissing off the mods, etc.

I don't remember the last time I had online friends. Nowadays I just post on 4chan and idle in a few IRC channels. It's pretty uneventful. I got addicted to some MMOs last year but played by myself and never made friends.

>>9329003
same here.

Never really had online friends. Had some IRL friends when I was still in school, but I guess they're all online friends now. I avoid facebook like the plague though, and they're all assholes about it.
I tried to delete it once and got so many harassing text messages about it I just undeleted it and have dealt with it so far.

Probably going to change my number when I delete it this time.

>>9328972
You aren't losing anything if you try to apologize or just message him. He probably misses you too.

>>9328995
Join in a party for grind and stay the whole time without speak is actually pretty easy

All my online friends are dead...

You probably didn't mean to come off as dark and edgy, but you did.

>>9328995
I always play alone in all the games I play but I have still ended up with numerous friends, most of them added me after we got randomly matched up with each other and they saw that I was competent.

I stopped talking to the only person I had contact with on a regular basis.

I wanted to change my life, but the depression has just been worse instead.

>>9329025
I have done this once, and the people I was partied with started talking to me, and I didn't know what to do, since I didn't want to talk to them.

I have two I've known for 4 years. They really are great friends, I don't know why they'd like someone like me. They're pretty normal people, too.

>>9328946
Nice pic.

/jp/ depression thread ; ;

>>9329019
I just remembered that he blocked me on everything. It can't be helped.

>>9328926
worse is when they don't say shit and just stop playing

>>9329026
Actually you more likely came off as rude.

>>9329043
Oops. I do that in pretty much every game I've played with /jp/.

I once had an online relationship with someone who made me feel really special. I think it was the first time i've been genuinely attracted to a male even though i'm not gay, and 99% of the pictures I save are that of 2D girls.

I just stopped replying to him for about a week, and he never bothered to follow up on me after that, so I didn't either.

>>9329040
Brutal, dude. I'm sorry to hear that.

>>9329048
How did you meet him?

>>9329040
I would block you too, nerd.

>>9329040
Like what?

>>9329053

so edgy and cool XD

>>9329040
Don't be silly. You always can create a second profile and message him from it. Or he probably already removed you from the ignore list.

One of them betrayed me for in-game pixels, so I've been wary of trusting online friends ever since.

I remember the first time I played Priest on RO. I was in a party with a hunter and we played together for five hours without saying a word. After we were done he just said "Thanks" and logged off. I didn't even have enough time to reply... Not like I would have said anything, though, but... It was lonely.

>>9329040
It happened to me too

But I still can send him an e-mail, but I think I only have 1 chance before he notices and block me in that too, so.. I just don't know what I say, It's just only 1 chance

A long time ago I met someone on an IRC channel. He was close to my age (a bit younger) and had a lot of problems with depression, etc. We shared similar interests and had a lot of fun talking to each other after school. Every day I would wait for him to appear on IRC just to start chatting with him. But eventually one day I got him angry and he blocked me on literally everything.

A couple years later he contacted me again and I was very happy, and we started to talk again. But recently I don't think I really want to be friends with him anymore. His personality is now grating, he ignores stuff I say, we don't share interests anymore (he's become obsessed with MLP and other equally idiotic things), and I feel like I respond to him out of politeness and obligation and not because I want to.

Why do people change so much for the worse?

;_;

Get a load of all these lonely friendlords. Neo-/jp/ in full bloom.

Let us all hold hands and cry together, /jp/ ; ^ ;

>>9329081
I'll be your friend, anon.

>>9329063
I guess I'll try that. The worst that can happen is not getting an answer right?

>>9329070

I'm that kind of guy, and even played RO. Sorry, we just don't know what to say either.

>>9329090
If you want to be my friend then please get the fuck out of my sight.

>>9329057

I'm afraid you'd stalk me if I told you ;_;

>>9329094
Yeah. Go for it, anon.
Good luck to you and your friend.

>>9329099
It's OK. I like to be the one doing the chasing.

Man, me and some friends we used to troll stumbleupon back in the day; we even made up a bullshit group name because some of our victims were convinced that we were an organized group, not just 5 bored kids.

...I googled that name just now and the only proof of our existence is a couple of blog posts from the people who hated us.

>>9329102
Why would I stalk you and how? I was just interested in your meeting location, was it something like STEAM or some random chatting site or even /jp/?

>>9329095
Oh, please don't apologize, I'm not particularly angry; I was just reminiscing about what made me realize that support classes just weren't the best choice for me on MMOs. I hold no grudge against that kind of person, and specially not towards you personally.

Yeah, I sometimes think about old online friends. It's weird how you just drift away from one another so suddenly. Unlike with real people, all it takes is you just waking up one day, deciding not to log back into IRC, and poof. I can think of two distinct circles from which I walked away.

>>9329125
I think it helps if the others have ways to contact you in real life. I've had a circle of friends that I met online over 10 years ago as a kid and are still friends to this day. We have played numerous games with each other, we have all met each other in person, a couple of us even competed for one of the two girls in the group. Two of them are even starting their own business together.

Used to have a buddy I would talk to every day, we had so much in common and we would always talk about our troubles, then he got a girlfriend and never talked to me again...
Oh well, at least I have my video games...

>>9328974
Don't even worry about it.
The middle age Japanese woman is legit
The woman can be found on Google and parts of her resumes can be found.
So obscure that no one could fake it.
If I ever meet/have sex witj her...
I'll post a picture of her and me
HA!
Could you imagine
I'll post it as an anon
So you guys better remember I said this.

never had any

>>9329146
One of them tracked me down when I signed up for LinkedIn with the hopes of getting a job, (ha) and it was strange to see what he had become in the course of half a decade: quite successful. I never logged in again.

online friends are just as bad as IRL ones. i used to have them, but not anymore. i don't miss them. i don't want them. i'm glad things turned out the way they did, though i wish someone told me that humans a shit before, so i could avoid wasting my time and effort.

I got a couple cool friends I play with almost everyday.

We had a stupid silly little sexual chat today and it somehow got to me being in a three-way with two other girls in my guild.

I wonder about them, but I still love them none the less.

That feeling when there all 14-17 years old while I'm in my 20's

They all became normals. Oh well. I haven't been able to make any new ones. Had those old ones for about 8 years.

We still hang from time to time, even met a few. Every online friend i've had from /jp/ are either just a one-off "I wont even try to stay to say hi because i'm a lazy depressed shit" or full of emotional baggage.
If you can't even be somewhat social online you shouldn't bother at all, stop trying. Otherwise, I welcome you in open arms.

What a horrible thread. How is this /jp/ related?

>>9328880
>Tell me about your online friends /jp/

He's more autistic than me, goes on /jp/ and we already met irl. He's my best friend now. He's the only one I have and the only one I'll ever need.

>>9329152
Don't you sometimes wish you were a girl so you could be his girlfriend?

>>9329201
I wish you were my girlfriend.

>>9329204

I don't have many, I think I've lost my only online friend, he decided to hurt me badly by bringing up something which hurt me a lot and trying to use that as an excuse to get something out of me. I got angry and upset and I've not talked to him since. The thing I want most though is a real life friend who I could meet on a regular basis.

I knew some Jewish guy over Steam who would always bother me with questions about Touhou and computer hardware. Apparently, he dropped out of university for the 2nd time and disappeared. I hope he didn't kill himself.

>>9329209
I meant to say, I think I've lost my only real online friend, as opposed to the people who say hi to me once a week.

White Ren, you fucking autist, I know you are here.

Eat dicks faglord.

btw I'm a girl

I don't play online games and I don't have internet friends. I don't think I'd make a good friend anyway, I doubt whether or not I'm an interesting person.

>>9329081

Sorry Anon but we're automatically friends now.

>>9329238
I really wish you'd let me be more than friends with you ZUN!bar-kun. I'd give anything for just a chance.

I slept with my online's friend's crush.
I met up with him one day and later that day, I met up with her.
It's a long story how I started talked to someone who had NOTHING to do with the game but he found out and hated me for awhile
Now we're on good terms I think

>>9329241

Was she asian?
If so how did things go?

Do you have autism?
Are you and anus?

>I tried to delete it once and got so many harassing text messages about it I just undeleted it and have dealt with it so far.
i know that chair.
i'm waiting till everyone forgets me so i can delete it for real. hopefully it's soon.
though i'd ideally want some kinda ninja profile, where people can't see me nor contact me, but i can stalk them. some of their drama is pretty funny.

One I lost contact with is probably dead or a NEET, the other is studying in college. I haven't spoke to the second one in almost two years, although I always see him online on MSN.

The others I still talk to them in occasions... but I miss the old days...

>>9329262
He has disabilities. Please don't make fun of him.

I've only had access to computers for about... 7 years, and only had access to the internet for about 6. I never had time for online friendships to develop. Feels weird talking to people who've had an internet connection since the 90s. The whole thing still seems kind of new to me.

My online friends are the most sugoiii. The best of the best, the most important people in my life. All kinds of fun times everyday in some weird way.

I feel like from reading this thread, everyone on /jp/ has friends and I don't, this is fucking painful.

>>9329281
how many goats are in your herd? :DDD

ebin joke was selfmade :DD

>>9329271
I had that for a long time initially, but then some faglord had to tell everyone else he was friends with me on facebook and ruined fucking everything.

Also: their drama is never funny to me; it's just normals being idiots. I wish I could get away without consequences.

>>9329309
Don't worry anon, I don't even have any online friends.

I think most are just reminiscing.

>>9329309
I'll be your friend.

>>9329309
Not everyone, remember that the true soul of /jp/ is eternal loneliness.

>>9329326
I am jealous of you.

>>9329017
I deleted mine and no one said a thing

I had online friends a long time ago, when I used to visit small forums. The main community I was a part of eventually died after an episode of drama, and since then the closest I've had to an internet friend is a couple people who sent me friend requests in an MMO.

I think that some kind of Omegle for /jp/ would be cool. Saying lewd and mean things all the way, but also the opportunity to make a friend through an anonymous program.

I'm always so awkward online, even in games. No matter how much I try I can never really start a friendly chat with someone else, it's not in my nature. If I try to imitate how I see others start them, I just come across as insincere since I don't really believe in how I'm acting. I honestly wouldn't mind being one of those typical F2P mmorpg players who post on Gaia Online and easily strikes up conversation with other people about anime like Naruto or Avatar. They say ignorance is bliss, and whenever I see them so enthusiastic about what they enjoy, it makes me a bit jealous.

>>9329309
I have 3 friends. One of them is a secondary and really likes dnb more than I can stand to listen to him talk about non-stop. One is so tertiary he didn't know Flan had a sister. The other is cool but we hardly talk because we're too socially awkward.

>>9329338
You are too autistic to fake a personality, that is sad to hear because it's honestly not that hard.

>>9329331
It's pretty nice actually. I also cut contact with everyone and it felt pretty great. I don't even really miss them to be honest. Sometimes I get bored, but I'll just get on /jp/ or plays games. I don't have to worry about anyone.

>http://omegle.com/
For common interest put in aspergers.

>>9329314
It's good to know I'm not alone.

>>9329316
How?

>>9329347
Not the person quoted, but on the rare occasions that I do fake a personality I always feel bad afterwards. I'm also too timid to let my real personality show, so I eventually end up coming across as quiet and bland.

>>9329351
What do you do when they try to contact you?
I'm afraid of confrontation, and I live in a smallish town, so if I run into one of them while I'm grocery shopping or something, they're going to want to talk and ask if I'm mad at them and start calling/emailing me again.

I can't not tell them my new number or email address if they ask me because autism and I'd have to say no which is hard/uncomfortable and therefore impossible for me to do.

Oh there's been plenty, and there still is some.

I only worry about how I've been acting in the past and what the people who I've lost contact to thought about me. I was no asshole by any means, but slightly depressed and confused at times which led to some silly scenarios.

>>9329359
Faking a personality is trash, anyway. Honesty and sincerity is much simpler, and when you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything. There's no need to make things more complicated than they already are.

>>9329190
an made bor

How do I befriend /jp/?
Or is that a bad idea?

>>9329360
Only one of them ever contacts me, and only a few times. He's also one of the only ones who doesn't really annoy me, he's kind of cool, but I still don't talk to him much anymore. Besides him, no one contacts me anymore. Hell, one of them was apparently mad at me because I cut contact. I also live in a small town, but I don't go out enough to have too much risk, although it does happen. It got worse when my mom forced me to go to college, and so I still see quite a few of them. They leave me alone at this point though, which I don't mind. I just go to class and then leave.

>>9329377
I guess I should of said something other than personalities, what is easy to fake are things like charm and charisma when you truly don't feel this way. I never said you had to lie. Most people thing doing such things is impossible because most who try are immediately caught because as everyone knows they are not easy things to fake. Even faking interesting in a subject you have no interest in to make another person feel listened to is easy to do.

>>9329276
what disabilities? i keep seing him or people say that he has multiple ones, but i don't think i've ever seen him specify that.

Back when I played MapleStory I had two friends, Joe and Rose.
We hung out every day, at the same spot.
Eventually, Rose told us she was raped a few years back.
A while after that, Joe married Rose in game.
While I was offline, they had some kind of argument and divorced. Both of them logged in less and less frequently.
About a week later, one of Rose's friends pm'd me saying that she committed suicide. I didn't know what to say.

Here we go guys,

Tourette syndrome, OCD, ADD, ADHD, missing an organ or two, missing or damaged nerves causing multiple problems in neurological system, partial color blindness, a shake in my hands but not to the point of where it is visible when looking at me, dyslexia, I physically cannot write to par to save my life which my doctors go through a long posses to explain, my arms are "Longer than most peoples and can be seen as too long for my body", they say half my entire body is crooked, I am addicted to meds and if I don't get them I crash, and I need tests read to me else it will take me ours on end to finish anything.
There
I have other things that are too complicated to get into, but I assure you I don't have autism or aspergersor anything along those lines, so please do not think I do or imply it.
I deal with a lot and persevere everyday.
I don't want to say I hold this over anyone, it's just that I have a lot, but not autism and I don't want to be dealt any other medical terms that aren't true
Thank you and have a good night

It was written in a pretty humorous manner. What kind of response were you expecting?

>>9329529
Relax, it doesn't offend me at all.
She was a bit psycho now that I think back on it

>>9329534
>>9329539
okay, sorry, I just tend to get kind of sensitive when people talk that way about other people who committed suicide.
it's a personal thing I guess, and I'm sorry.

>>9329546
I made a guy commit suicide over the internet, why do you feel so sensitive about suicide? You don't know them and you shouldn't care about them.

>>9329570
Stop bullying.

>>9329570
so edgy, please don't cut me

>>9329570
I care about you and that never happened.

>>9329457

I used to know a guy who had a batshit insane girlfriend in Aion. I just listened to his shit because he would get me into his guild's groups, and that was a lot more efficient, easy and quick than pugging. She once deleted everything on his account and proceeded to delete everything on her OWN account because she "felt guilty".

Some time after I quitted he contacted me to ask how I was, because he "felt lonely" after just being left by the crazy girl, what resulted to him going to a bar, getting involved into a fight, being stabbed in the stomach and waking up on the hospital and immediately getting thrown out from there because he had no money to stay. I pondered for a moment and said something like "well, that sounds like you. Are you ok?" and a quick conversation followed and ended.

It's so simple I sometimes wonder if "not knowing what to say" is the reaction people expect from you and the one you should have on these situations.

>>9329570
We don't tolerate bullying here.

>>9329457
If something happens to me I hope a friend posts on /jp/ to tell the bad news.
Death can be a bitter yet a glories thing within which your life comes to its fullest through the message of truth and Justice for the world to see and grasp.
As if to capture an eternal intangible beauty for but a moment that will shine throughout time.

I dont understand what is the big deal with suicide?
Why not end the suffering and help the earth.
Less population, less resources wasted and you dont have to go through your everyday of your life suffering and being sad.

>>9329613
There's a big deal when bullies are mean to people so they kill themselves.

>>9329603
let me know before you die and I'll tell /jp/

>>9329603
That was beautiful, even though I have no idea what you just said.

>>9329603

>>9329626
.....Th-...Thank...You...
It's hard to tell if someone is being sarcastic through posts or texts
>>9329631
?
How?
You are part of /jp/
I have connections that will do it for me.
I love you as real human beings /jp/ and some of you even as friends

>>9329620
Both party are at fault.
They can always choose to ignore the bullies but they chose not to and let themselves get bullied.
How the fuck can other people bully you when you close off contact to everyone.
Stop befriending bullies or maybe they should stop trying to befriend these so called cool and trendy people.

>>9329663
I didn't think there was someone even more socially retarded than me.

I had a good online friend for about 6 years when I was younger. We would play Starcraft (where I met him) and other games together for hours every day. Then as we got older our interests didn't always match up as perfectly as before and finally we made the mistake of talking on the phone a couple times and showing our pictures. We had spent all of those years with our own imagined images of each other in our heads and after breaking those images it was never quite the same. I haven't talked to him in about 5 years now.

I had 2 online friends who wanted to fuck me, despite not knowing what I look like or anything. One of them I might have, the other was pretty creepy.

>>9329711
They loved you because you were an amazing person, so looks didn't matter to them. It's sad you thought one was "creepy" though, I doubt he can be that creepy.

>>9329711
I had a friend who wanted to fuck me. Turned out he was gay after the years I had known him and one day he confessed to me. It was a little strange being a straight guy being confessed to by another guy...

I want to be /jp/'s shared girlfriend.

>>9329748
Do you do armpit sex?

>>9329748
>shared

Do you know how many people you would NTR? People would get attached to you and feel you were special, only to find out they weren't special at all and you were the board bike.

>>9329728
I don't think I'm an amazing person. In fact, I really hate how I was back then. I don't know why they liked me. As for the creepy one, he tried RPing a lot of the time. He was alright, it's just that sometimes he bothered me a bit.

>>9329762
You know what you're going in for beforehand. No reason to become attached when you have 100% foreknowledge.

>>9329748

>>9329762
Not everyone is gay for this guy. I am not gay.
I think he's the one always saying this and asking for our D's
But the by /jp/ers just might get attached to him, so yur right

>>9329744
Well I imagine that would be kind of weird. I'm not adverse to homosexuality though, so I wasn't actually weirded out by it. I still don't know what they liked about me anyways.

>>9329769
>No reason to become attached when you have 100% foreknowledge.

That's not how feeling work.

>>9329788
I wouldn't know, so I'm just basing it off logic.

>>9329800
Emotion isn't based on any logic, a serious flaw in a lot of humans.

>>9329748
Don't slut up my pure cirno you disgusting whore!

I have never been good at keeping friends, especially online ones.

>>9329876
Me too. A year is about the longest I can go

I always had few friends, mostly because my standards are pretty high... I mean, I see in loyalty the true value of people, and I'm loyal with others to the point of causing detriment to myself if needed.

The feeling was never mutual, and I don't forgive easily, so I ditched them one by one, until now I had only one "true" friend left. He even invited me to his house overseas last year and shit. But we have barely talked in the last few months due to our jobs and studies.

Anyway, I almost don't talk with anyone besides /jp/. I like to be alone, when I'm alone I'm at peace.

Maybe you get used to it if you are alone enough time, uh?.

Sometimes.

But with my IRL friends, too, I don't think about them often.

Such is life as an net addict.

but i don't have any friends

Oh my god... /jp/

I'm new to this board, but you guys all seem amazing. Everyone here seems to have the right frame of mind. I'd like to come here more often. What MMOs do you guys play? How do I join a /jp/ guild? I really want to get more involved with this facet of the community. If anyone knows the answers to my questions, please try to respond.

Also, does anyone have the original uncropped version of this picture? I lost it when I cropped it.

>>9330158
Neo-neo-/jp/, ladies and gentleman.

>>9330158
Welcome and enjoy your stay!
Currently popular MMOs are Tera and PSO2, both of which have flourishing /jp/ guilds. Just message any member of "Hotglue" and we'd be happy to invite you!

>>9328903
Stalking you? Have you consider that person want to be your friend and then you keep ignoring them..So what's the point of making friends then?

>>9330205
That's stalking.

I think about them a lot when I'm afk. Sometimes when I'm doing other shit I make comments to myself and wonder what they're reactions would be.

Like, this sandwich. I have only so much meat but too much cheese. Do I make do with an undesirable meat:cheese ratio or just make half a sandwich?

>>9329240
I have him in Windows Live but he never talks to me...

I have a lot of online friends. I've even met a few. They're all really nice and I hope to visit them all some day! They're all in different countries and different states, but some day, we'll all meet up and have a fun party! I even like them more than my real life friends! They're the most important people in the world to me and I love them so much!

I don't really have any "online friends". As in people I talk to in chat programs. I've had an MSN chat account for 2 years now with no contacts.

>>9330206
>because they miss me

That's no stalking, unless they keeps spamming that word every single day. Also, have you even replied to them politely ask the person to stop rather than ignoring?

yeah yeah
they may be dead or something

I had a good bunch of online friends, back in 2006; we used to play GuildWars, and kick ass in pvp.
My brother created the guild and managed all that shit, all I had to do was to be a decent pvp player.
We generally were around top 50, we fluctuated from top 100 to top 10. We eventually fought top 10 guilds, and sometime won against them.
We had a reputation of assholes, that warded annoying normalfags off. it was around that time that I discovered 4chan too.

Nowadays I'm only in touch with 2 guild members, and my brother.
One of them is in his second year of his master degree, we don't talk to each other a lot, but we used to play games until 2 years ago, he doesn't play much anymore.

The other one is in his fith year of studying medicine. I visited him twice, once for one week, the second time to help him move. I also used to phone him once a week and we'd chat for about an hour. He eventually had a girlfriend, so he stoped playing games and browsing 4chan. She eventually dumped him for christmass, but he's not the same anymore, he became somewhat of a normalfag. We used to browse /a/ together and share some thread links.

I have two.

One doesn't know she's my online friend. I want to keep things as they are, though, so I prefer that.

One took down his website and disappeared.

There's probably another two but they're both affiliated with subcultures that don't have boards on 4chan and my contact with them is remote.

>>9330337
I'd like to know what creepy subcultures aren't represented here.

>>9330343
The one at your house, nerdski.

>>9330364
I was legitimately curious you jerk.

>>9330168
don't troll him like that. recommending hotglue to anyone is beyond mean, even in response to a troll.

>>9330343
pretty much anything that can be considered a subculture and doesn't fall directly into the standart nerd cathegory.
furries are one thing that instantly comes to mind. /mlp/ doesn't exactly count as a furry board and i bet they wouldn't be welcome even there.

Several months ago I made a bunch of really good friends on IRC. Everybody had similar mindsets and interests and it was fun to talk to them every day.

I stopped visiting a while back. A couple of them have tried to contact me, but there's no going back now. They've probably forgotten about me anyway.

Well, I used to chat with someone on Skype like every day. Then one day, she just stopped responding. I felt like she got sick of me or something, so I stopped responding to her back. I hope she doesn't think that I'm angry at her or anything, but I don't want to bother someone if they don't want to be bothered. This is the same towards the rest of my online friends too. I don't like to bother people, so I won't keep nagging at an attempt of a conversation. I admit, I do get lonely sometimes though . . . It really sucks. So I hole myself up in my own room and just twiddle my thumbs while trying to think of things to do as I listen to music. I've been on a major slump of random depression again too, and started smoking a lot. I don't know how to stop this, but I just can't help it if I smoke, /jp/. I've been cutting back down on that shit though. I feel like life is really hopeless sometimes, /jp/.

>>9329048
>>9330512

You both should try again! I'm sure they're waiting for your reply!

>>9330444

american or not, otaku are never welcome in their home countries.

>>9329762
What if they get attached to /jp/ers?

>>9331453
>she
LOL

Sometimes.
I haven't made any new ones in years though, despite constantly playing multiplayer games.
I always solo in MMOs too. The last one I played, Tera, I joined the /a/ guild, but they all made up their own regular groups and I didn't feel comfortable asking to join any, so I just soloed, despite it being slower than grouping.

bunch of beta faggots on this board

>>9331632
pls go suck a cock, anon.

>>9331641
fuck off weeaboo

>>9331453
I am like that too. I won't bother people, when it seems like they don't want me around.
There was a cute little girl in WoW, who was my friend for like half a year. I quit WoW for a while and wasn't in contact with her. After the new expansion came out, I resubbed, saw that she had gotten new friends, decided that she'd be better off without me forcing myself back into her friend's circle and unsubbed again.

I actually think soloing is faster than grouping Tera. Having a group is only good for instances and BAMs.

>>9329338
>anime like Avatar

I think about them every day.

I wanted to move on, I felt like I had to leave that world behind me.
So I did — “move on”.
Few months later I’m at the exact same spot, stuck.

Was it all for nothing?

They’ll recognize me from the image, that is if they still browse /jp/.

I had a pretty close online friend, but at some point I was always initiating conversations and she didn't seem that interested so I just didn't bother.

>>9331705

This is the poster from:
>>9331453
Yeah, I agree with you two a lot. Like after a while, you just lose that connection with them, and you feel like you shouldn't attempt since they just aren't interested in what you have to say. Or just disregard everything you say. Oh well. -siiiiiiigh-

I've never had online friends. Or any type of friends at all, now that I think about it.

Huh. That's kind of a downer.

I miss most of them. The latest one I had, we were contacting one another via e-mail after leaving the game that we were playing. Early this January, she mentioned that her depression was coming back. I responded with an e-mail that was just awkwardly formal and full of pretentious shit as though I'm a psychiatrist of some sort.

She never replied.

Two weeks ago I sent her an e-mail asking if she is alright, but I doubt I'll be receiving anything back. It's painful to open up the inbox every day hoping that there would be a response. I hope she has recovered from the depression since then.

Right now I am left only with 2 online friends whom I regularly keep in contact with. None of us play games together (we tried to but failed), we just enjoy bitching about our lives to one another and share links. Our online friendship happen to be the longest one I've ever been in (4 years), but I know it's all going to end sooner or later. I hope the day never comes.

I had
They are all missing now

It seems like I can resonate with most people in this thread.
I used to be a Hotglue regular during highschool and played quite a few games with the guild. However, the blissful days have ended and I had to move to another town and start studying at the university. Now I'm just a broke student working hard to earn some cash for the next year, with outdated-as-hell hardware that can't handle even the simplest nowaday MMO.
This may sound autistic, but for some reason it's painful to remember all the fun times that we've had together; perhaps that is because it was the closest I have ever felt to being a part of a community. And like most of the times, it's already too late to try and get back, too much time has already passed, we have changed.
I just hope that everyone is doing good.

>>9332022
>Hotglue
>fun times

>>9331953
I've in the same boat as you. I've been speaking to the same group of people since 2008, with a few additions to the group. We've had ups and downs when people fight but somehow we all are able to come back and speak to each other as friends at the end of the day. I'm just scared that one day the person who helps solve conflicts in the group will leave and we'll all just fall apart.

I'm scared of losing one of the people I'm closest to in the group too, since I constantly make jokes that may offend him and I'm not sure if he understands that I mean no harm. How exactly can I make sure that he understands that I mean no harm when I say things like that to him? It's normally things like "x a shit" or "x is a bad character and you should feel bad."

>>9332034
Well, maybe it was just me who had fun. Then again, I played less popular games with them like Valkyrie Sky and Global Aika.

>>9331707
Are you sure they were not interested? People seem to think that a lot about me when truthfully I really just enjoy listening more than speaking. When I give one or two word responses it isn't because I am not interested it is because I am taking everything in and thinking about what the other person has been talking about.

>>9332055
What's your nick?

>>9332407
Either Silverfall or Kawaiiuguu.

>>9332434
Try visiting #hotglue instead.

>>9332054
You are a tsundere.

>>9332054
That sounds frighteningly similar to me, except the person that kept us all together did leave.

>>9331673
Some of my mmo friends take some pause, and when I'm waiting for them to come back, I set stuff aside for them so they won't have to grind it, look up for good build to play with them; and when they come back, they don't message me.
I won't want to bother them so I don't message them, I just hope that one day they say hi and we can play together again.

>>9332441
Not sure if there is mmuch point in that, quite some time has already passed.

>>9332454
People have told me this a lot as a joke. I'm starting to think it's true.

>>9332468
The person who's been keeping us together has been acting like he has no interest in a lot of things we do. We try to play Civilization 4 but he normally declines because he knows that we're going to restart dozens of times because of bad starts. He only plays LoL now and plays with maybe one other person from our group of friends since he likes to take it easy. Everyone else wants to get out of "ELO hell" or whatever they call it, LoL doesn't interest me besides character designs. I just want everyone to be friends and do fun things together.

>>9332542
You may be a kuudere.

You fucks have a serious inferiority complex

>>9332054
I think lots of people make jokes like that

A few years ago I would always make those kind of jokes and not be sure if they knew I wasn't serious or not

>>9332555
Who would have thought, on /jp/, of all the places ?

>>9332560
I come here to feel better about my life

>>9332555
I would fuck Rin.

>>9329162
>>9329169
>>9329173

>>9332568
I hope you're feeling better than ever now.

>>9332542
At least your group is still together. Best of luck to you and your friends.
;_;

Sometimes I just sit around in some mmo and wait for someone in the /jp/ guild to talk about something and invite me to do shit together. Obviously, nothing has ever happened and I still haven't made a single friend in online games.

>>9332552
Thanks.

>>9332557
I guess so. Sometimes he plays along and says things like that. I just hope that he understands that I don't use it to insult his favorite things since we generally have the same opinion on things.

>>9332589
I hope you gain a friend soon, anon! Just keep trying and I'm sure you'll find someone to talk to. I'd talk to you but I'm nervous around people I barely know. I can't be as relaxed around them as I am with the people I've known for a while.

Thanks for helping me out, /jp/.

>>9332594
Yeah. It gets harder and harder as it goes on too since everyone already has their little groups and recognizes each other.

I used to play the shit out of Graal Online a long time ago. I miss everybody there.
Fun fact, I did a lot of the graphics for Era, some levels, and am featured in the Black Holst gang group photo and used in likeness in the Golden Hearts casino that was added.

>>9332555

Don't make fun of me ;_;

>>9332671
What happened? Why did you stop?

>>9332704
The game used to be free over 10 years ago, then they shifted heavily throughout several payment models. Everbody I knew just stopped playing, and then I lost my password to my account and the email associated with it. The game is not worth the subscription fee, it is a terrible terrible place.

It was nice having such a great reputation though.

>>9332671
Wow! I used to play that! I played back when the game was free to play, but you were unable to save progress. My favorite world was that default one. One day I tried to check it out again, but it seems that that world has no disappeared. Good times. ;_;

I used to have about 8 online friends who were all part of the same circle of friends, but I stopped talking to all but one of them. Ever since I got into visual novels a couple of months ago I stopped talking to that last one too. I feel the urge to message him and say hi, but I feel it may be too weird to just disappear for 60 days and suddenly message him.

>>9331679

In that case I'll be your friend, Anonymous. Pettan is pretty shitty though.

>>9333464
FOOL SAY HI TO HIM GOD DAMMIT, HE MISSES YOU YOU SELFISH SPERGLORD! FUCK!

Last night I logged in to steam for the first time in 3 months. I got a message saying Hi where you've been. I nearly shat myself

Long time ago I played Endless Online. Made a friend, but I left for a couple days. When I returned he was with some big guild and had many more friends. I didn't fit in anymore.

I'm always too hesitant to join MMOs /jp/ plays because I always find out late. I'll be a third wheel. And in other MMOs I play randomly, I can't seem to make friends. I even try, I try talking to people and helping them, sometimes having fun by holding trivia contests for gold or something. But generally they either ignore me or leave soon after we interact.

>>9333613
Me too dude, wanna be friends?

>>9333693
I don't know. Just saying we're friends doesn't really seem like it'd go anywhere.

I've got a lot of internet friends. Most of them are pretty cool people. They come from all across the world and most of them are really nice. One of them even sent me something for my birthday, which I'm really glad for considering my parents and my IRL friends didn't buy me anything. I don't think any of them are from /jp/ though. I've never met anyone from /jp/.

I knew a girl from /jp/ once. She was really kind. Then we met up with another friend and it turns out she was just using us both for attention. It made me very sad and angry.

though, honestly, i still miss that friendship

>>9333720
What do we do then?

>>9328880
Yea, only reason I'd go back to play. I wouldn't be surprised if they all quit though, considering I haven't played in a couple years. One of them used to live close to where I lived before, but the dude was a skinhead and I never told him I'm a sand nigger. He was pretty cool with me though.

>>9334183
decide on a game to play together, and do it.

>>9334025
How did you she use you for attention?

I'll fucking ageru this/

I don't have any online friends.

>>9336842
Same here. Wanna be friends?

Made my first online friend in PSO2.

He doesn't log on anymore and doesn't respond my e-mails.

>>9339328

No.

This thread is kind of funny. It's clearly off topic, full of shit posts, and uses an anime screencap, yet the Janitor is fine with it.

But at the same time, if someone were to make a thread actually about SAO light novels, which are /jp/, and used the exact same OP image that is in this thread, it would get deleted.

>>9339393
The janitor suffers from Selective "shitpost" deletion syndrome, be gentle!

Don't you hate it when you party someone out of pity and they get all clingy? I don't even want to make friends.

>>9339373
I know that feel man
sometimes I feel the entire /jp/ hate me when they ignore me like that in games

>>9339393
Because you didn't read the light novels, fucker. You just got to know it through the subbed anime and that's all discussion it would get. Which goes on /a/.

It also doesn't help when people like Yama are the ones who keep spamming screencaps and threads about whatever anime of the season he liked on /jp/.

>>9339405
What if he just barged in on your quest?

>>9339393
Anime screencaps alone aren't the problem. Or perhaps more appropriately, anime screencaps ALONE are the problem.

I've began threads with screencaps from Western movies and they've stayed because they were on-topic or interesting.

>>9339418
I don't mind working with others as long as they shut up.

>>9339409
>Because you didn't read the light novels, fucker.
I didn't watch the anime either, you autist. My point is it would still be infinitely more related than this entirely off topic thread, that has plenty of anime screencaps in it, and over 200 shit posts. Yet the light novel thread would get deleted because people might talk about the anime, or post anime screencaps, while this is allowed to fester on the board for days.

Of all of the people I've met during my long time on the internet, the one I remember most was guy named Uparson, who frequented an irc channel with me back in the wild days of the 90s when I was a teenager.

He was a huge weeaboo and also a middle-aged pedophile, in retrospect I don't really know why nobody banned him from the channel.

Anyway, I'd give him all kinds of shit all the time. Especially when he talked about anything Japanese. He still seemed to like me, though. He actually paid to mail me some ranma vhses, which I actually still have. He ended up getting caught on a p2p honeypot in the early 2000s

I mostly remember him because I gave him so much shit, and now I look at myself and see that I've become pretty much the same thing.

>>9339405
Yes.

join party
them "hey sup"
me "hi"
them "where you from"

REALLY? Is this like a cultural greeting somewhere or what? Why the HELL do you need to know where I'm from?
