Spent 3+ years mastering japanese, just found out I can't even use 2chan and talk to the natives and wash myself in japanese culture. Why?

3 years is only enough if you have lived in Japan or actively talked Japanese in some form of Japanese environment. 3 years is not enough even for most languages. For Japanese, it should be even longer.

I'm a pretty quick learner and used websites to skype with Japanese people looking to learn English as well as talked to people who learned it and they are surpriced at my progress.

If you'd spent those three years on 2chan using Japanese you wouldn't have this problem.

You will not progress unless you are using it for regular purposes at almost constant rate. Just because those people are surprised at your progress within 3 years doesn't mean that you are even remotely near fluency.
I've studied English for 6 years yet I've learned far more within 6 months of living in an English speaking country. This applied to other languages as well.

I can't even understand how 2chan is laid out well enough to get to the threads themselves. What's your issue?

2chan is big, but 4chan is bigger. Notice how their threads aren't huge imagedumps and it's much slower. Moot actually had to ban the Japanese from coming here in the early years because the bandwidth use was out of control.

But 2chan limited their posters to Japanese IPs mostly because of the amount of spambots and shitposters from other countries were overwhelming the board.

So most likely you'll have to get a VPN that allows you to select which country you're appearing from and hope that it hasn't been banned because some idiot that ruined the IP.

I spent 15 years masturbating to japanese cartoons and I still can't even speak the language.

When Japanese people tell you you're good at Japanese it's a lie, fool. You can just say ありがとう at a store and they will say how good you are. I've been living here and that's how you actually get better

I'm assuming you mean 3 years of classes. Doesn't really do anything without a lot of effort outside of the classroom as well.

>>17168417
Sounds like you haven't mastered it then, fuckboy. Three years would be an incredibly fast time period to master a language though considering it doesn't sound like you were living in Japan and actually immersing yourself in the language.
Keep studying faggot.

You can't use 2ch prob cuz all the super secret in-joke talk. Or maybe moon is that hard. Pls tell me because I'm just finishing up katakana and am going to start kanji within a couple weeks. My goal is to be able to read Manga Time Kirara in 3-4 years.

He's obviously talking about not being able to post because they ban foreign IPs. You'd have to be pretty new to not know that before trying to post there though.

If you want to learn a language without moving to a country where you can speak it; you need to READ. Go read eroge, LN and other stuff. Taking classes doesn't actually work. Here in Canada public school students take French for 6+ years and don't learn anything.

They're pretty thorough with blacklisting those and they die after a couple days. The best choice would be to purchase a Japanese VPN or set up your own. But then you're basically paying to shitpost on a site that really doesn't want you there anyway.
