I would encourage you to just take a small break and see if in time you feel led to come back. Yes there is alot of negative like u said, however there are also many amazing souls here. We need to find ways to come together. I feel your frustration friend. Please dont just give up though. We understand a break. We need you fren and I value and love you for being here with us. If u ever need someone to talk to or need prayer. I am here. I can give u other ways to get in contact with me of your heart is truly set on leaving here
I hope you give it some more thought and perhaps come back with a different perspective and different expectations. We need All Frens on Deck! We need thinkers and articulate people like you. I wish you well, and hope that things get better on the home front.
Yes, I agree with that. For me, I sort of thought of the "little too far" as sort of bonus material that I can choose to engage in, or not. About 6 months ago I was feeling the way you described and so I reevaluated whether or not I wanted to continue to visit here. One thing that I did that has helped me is to focus on 1) the things I am curious about, and keep it at the 40K foot range; and 2) come here to see if there are updates about specific things, such as RvW. I have come to trust this community as being very timely in its sharing of information.
With those two guidelines for myself, I have stayed in my sweet spot, contributed here and there where I could, and found my balance. It helped tremendously, and I no longer am as affected by some of the mightier-than-thou users here. Ultimately, I have turned this board into an effective tool for myself, as well as a place I can connect with good people. And... there are way more good people on this board than not, in my opinion.
Get some exercise, get out in nature: spend time with your family, and with God. If you don't have your health, you don't have anything, as Count Rugen says. That includes mental.
If you come back, block the nasties; it makes it easier.
I blocked a bunch of posters that have great info, and some of whom do great posts, just to make the place less spammy. It's nothing personal against them, I just like a quieter space.
Do want you have to do to take care of yourself. You’ve got to keep this (any)board at arms length for your own sanity. There’s so much noise from so many, not to mention the state of the world constantly dragging you down because you’re aware of what’s going on, it’s very tough and often feels very futile. Good luck!
Fuck the upvotes anyways, they don’t mean Shiite. It’s a silly game like how many followers you can get on TS. It’s overrated. I haven’t put up a post here in close to a year and only comment on a few things. Mostly read for other people’s perspectives. Too much up and down hopium to take too seriously, although I’m not immune to it.
Not really, I rarely post as well and probably only make a comment 1/4 of the times I’m here. I read and absorb, then I think it out offline. I didn’t look up his history, I just answered his post from my heart, I’ve done this with shills and shit disturbers in the past as well, although not with everyone of them. It seems we can be quick to suspect here, and for good reasons in today’s climate, but perhaps we shouldn’t lose perspective and become what we are fighting against, mentally speaking of course. Cheers!
Sorry to see you go, Fren. We need more like you. However, your mental, emotional, physical, and more importantly, your Spiritual Health are and always should be the utmost of your concerns, so I understand why you're leaving. Just don't let it become a permanent thing.
Doesn't matter if anyone is right or wrong, as long as we all fight on the same team and fight to win. Sadly, most here don't get that yet. Once they do, we will start winning...and BIGLY.
Until such a time as you decide to come back, Fair Winds and Following Seas.
There are a lot of good people here. Don't judge the entire board by the few bad eggs. That said, I understand COMPLETELY where you are coming from. I rarely offer an opinion any longer, either here or on PDW, because it opens the door for others to judge, make personal attacks, and otherwise jump down your throat. I don't need that. I come here for news, unusual articles, and if I can easily drop a link that's relevant to a conversation, I'll do it. But my days of actively engaging in discussions is probably over with.
It really boggles my mind, because everyone here should be basically on the "same page," sharing ideas having to do with patriotism, avant-garde, etc. But there are enough people on here who are so hateful, that I wonder why they even bother? I certainly wouldn't hang out on a board contrary to my viewpoints just to harass and troll other people. I don't understand what people like that get out of spewing hatred.
I agree that you should take a break but keep your account for now. This truly is a great place to get prayers and advice. Yes, there are those who like to pounce on anyone and everyone but most people here are supportive. Wishing you peace in your heart and mind.
u/Zeitreise just has his shill/doomer/glowfag/slider radar on and in this case you fit the profile somewhat.
I am not sure about the others incidents, but yes the board has been under attack.
Going back to the chans cause some dudes on GA pissed you off does not seem like a winning strategy/proper mitigation.
The new world will have "Harden the fuck up" bracelets for everyone so why not start now?
Seriously, we are not so bad.
I can be bombastic, verbose and verbally pugilistic as well as intermittently hating all humanity but it's not personal unless you are a normie. So fuck it.

If you think they are meanies here, wait until you find the boards.
I suspect some.of the meanest here are also perusing the Chan's and 8kun.

I would've left long ago without that feature.

I too am keeping, archiving everything for history's sake. May God bless you friend, and I pray you find peace in this dark time.

Best wishes.
So you think it was the board OR could your own actions have led to these results?
I agree that you should take a break but keep your account for now. This truly is a great place to get prayers and advice. Yes, there are those who like to pounce on anyone and everyone but most people here are supportive. Wishing you peace in your heart and mind.
Offline archiving will take manual effort unless you know how to code.
Hey Brother,
Don't slight the Lurkers (tm)
Lurkers gotta Lurk.
I know fren.
I was only making a joke cause my Karma's not much higher than him.
(not my downvote)
Carry on.
u/Zeitreise just has his shill/doomer/glowfag/slider radar on and in this case you fit the profile somewhat.
I am not sure about the others incidents, but yes the board has been under attack.

It's the great Awakening.
Kek!!
