Do You Ever Look Back Through Your Old Posts And...

Epsira · August 08, 2015, 09:02:03 PM

Consider how much you've changed your posting habits over time?

I notice my earliest forum days filled with more thoughtful posts, and over time I've lowered the bar enough for a limbo player to have difficulty keeping their legs intact.
I also used lime green font and I'm not happy about that. Actually, when I started using orange text was when I started lowering my standards and not being as polite.
Puts things in perspective...

Is there anything that strikes you about the "new you?" Is there anything you want to change?

My posting style have become more tame recently

Ásgeirr · August 08, 2015, 09:07:14 PM

i dont think ive changed much here apart from caring and posting less

R o c k e t · August 08, 2015, 09:23:32 PM

I'm not super friendly anymore, I'll take a few shots at people here and there.
Of course, all in good fun. It takes getting used to for some people I suppose, since I rarely did that.

Rinev · August 08, 2015, 09:24:30 PM

I've become more open as a user.

I've been here for a day but I can already hear the screams of my brain cells dying as my post count increases

That's natural, the effect will barely be noticeable within a week.

More like I look back and cringe.

Verbatim · August 08, 2015, 09:51:14 PM

People's perception of me has changed more than I have.

Sandtrap · August 08, 2015, 09:56:41 PM

Fuck if I know. I don't necessarily feel like taking a trip down forgotten memory lane. Too many unpleasant surprises. Then again I don't think I've ever been fond of looking back at myself in any sense anyway.

Just a basic guess, I'd imagine I was more reserved and quiet. Going out on a a bit of a stretch here, maybe I was a little more cohesive too.

Elai · August 08, 2015, 10:03:43 PM

I used to be more pleasant and friendly.

Pippen · August 08, 2015, 10:35:20 PM

I'm an asshole now, I used to be nice.

eggsalad · August 08, 2015, 10:45:14 PM

eh it kind of goes through tides of "i need to stop being boring and have opinions" and "wow im an annoying asshole I should chill out"

Kiwicake · August 08, 2015, 10:50:06 PM

I actually would say I'm pretty similar to how I was back when I was 13/14, which is weird

BlitzFiend · August 08, 2015, 10:51:46 PM

I used to be overly "omfg kill me i wanna die

"
Now I'm.... neutral, oddly enough

Oh Jesus I remember my first few posts on Bnet, which was pretty much my first real forum.

Jesus it's cringey. I was like 13 though so it's acceptable.

^^^pretty much this

The Hån · August 08, 2015, 11:22:28 PM

Back on Bnet(early days) I cringe at majority of my posts. I did have a few good troll threads here and there.

For the most part i just grew up from: an annoying middle school kid, to an angsty teen, to a chill dude thats just in it for teh lulz.

R o c k e t · August 08, 2015, 11:31:50 PM

Most people were nicer at first, judging from the responses in this thread

I've also noticed that.
Sep7 turns people into grumps.

Lets not go there...

Dopameme · August 09, 2015, 12:01:48 AM

I posted like a DARE advocate before senior year of high school, would shame stoners all the time.

Look at me now😎

Basically this. I'm not as friendly anymore, and I have a tendency to take pot shots at people when I would've never done that before. I took the effort and time to try and talk to and help people who seemed to be going through rough times, just as others did for me. I don't do that anymore. It's not so much to be antagonistic as it's more for just cheap laughs.

I've also noticed that about myself, but that's also in response to personal developments offline too >.>
