Unless you're a coomer you'll stop going to all but like 1 or 2 boards. Even those will change and become hostile or inhospitable at some point. You're more or less stuck trying to fit into a machine that's constantly changing. You either be whatever you made for yourself or you one day realize you truly get nothing from this place other than some place to talk to yourself and quit forever.
The old meme of you're here forever is dead. I've been here for like 14 years. That's half my god damn life. Some kids lurking right now are barely that old.
You have the power to leave or go someplace like the forbidden zone or xchan. It's really not that hard. There's a whole beautiful world out there that's nowhere near as bleak as y'all make it out to be. In all reality you'll do better out there than here.
Outside life with getting girls, having frens, doing normal people stuff and kinda watching your life have moments that can only be described as cinematic is very different but more fulfilling than anything you can get here. That's why I balance both. I can't leave I'm blind in both eyes now and even socially people notice I'm not quite right because of it. Y'all young bucks can though. You don't have to give yourself the mental illness that is addiction to the abuse of strangers that don't even like you.
Quit while you still have the choice because after you hit your first decade here it really puts everything in perspective.
Tldr; lol just quit and go outside nerd
