I've come to realize how little I know about all of you. Like no joke, the person I probably know the most about is Nasty (possibly Rocket as well), and even then its pretty much nothing at all. Like I've interacted with a majority of you for almost a decade over two websites and I still don't know anything about you. Like, that's pretty odd to me. Typically when you have known someone for 6 years you would at least know a decent amount of stuff about them. But I really don't know any of you. Maybe its because I'm not the most active, or people just don't like talking to me lmfao, but it's a realization that actually surprised me. It's weird to say that I'm not really friends with any of you, and vice versa, even after knowing many of you for so long.

But honestly, is it as odd as it seems, or is that just how the internet/forums work. Just familiar faces, and very rarely context behind it?

Hopefully tblocks and napalm get that reference

damn that's so true

i've never thought about that

oh k

In a lot of cases it's probably like that. To the people I do talk to I'm more invested as I get to know them, naturally.

But I notice when certain names don't come on so often anymore. I know that generally most everybody here has something that's not going right in their life. So I start to worry if I don't see certain names showing up.

You might not be as invested here because you have a social life and other things to occupy your time. I don't.

I feel the same, and when you do hear news that members did pass away I actually get sad. Sure I never knew you, but the person was a familiar "face". I think that's just being human. And at times since the community was so small, everyone did matter. The eventual leaving begs a lot of question and a lot of time you will never know why or what happened. Just the mystery that encompasses being anonymous.

I certainly care for the wellbeing of members of this site. Whether I had invested a lot of time or not, I still would.

I'm sorry your having a bad day then fam

Anyway, on topic

I like the internet because people are more honest with me

Its a necessary sacrifice imo to get rid of the actual interaction

So you prefer interaction online instead of face to face because you feel its more honest?

I've never heard it that way, typically I'd put real life interaction to be more honest. Then again, we all have different social experiences

bitch does it look like I give a fuck

Yeh.

But, really, it all comes down to how much people want to share. Even I don't bleed my guts out completely all over the forums. And there are people here that I still hardly know after all this time.

It all depends on what you can share amongst each other, and what you're willing to share with somebody you figure is interesting enough to bother with.

Sometimes I feel shitty about it because I bump into people or step on them accidentally here because I don't know them. I don't know what to watch out for or avoid, or what not to bring up. Or, I don't know what to say that would be relevant to them.

But it's always good to remember that you can't be friends with everybody. Nobody can. The people who feel like sharing with you, will share. All there is to it.
