>In my country certainly not. Then on top of that you have all these youngsters whose first experience of something privet is Discord.
after seeing this, I am a little bit more relieved that I have been discovering the internet when I was a teenager little by little, lurking on a few safe places with car magazines, F1 and gaming news; then getting to know how fandoms work (Sonic for example), then watching a few disturbing events that happen out there and after that, accepting the fact that lurking and not taking part on every single cool thing out there is the best idea to make it safer.

Then MLP and 4chan have helped me to discover the dirty side of this medium and gain confidence over the years by playing in the same rules that any other anon has to follow. All of this without social media accounts. I deleted my twitter account in 2016 and Facebook.....I am so so about deleting it despite having it completely inactive.

>It's a recipe for toxicity and things you will regret later. Though I cannot say of the people who should no better yet act as if they where naive youngsters themselves.
that´s true, they don´t hold that 100% of guilt for getting involved in those actions. Just that those first mistakes have a higher risk of undesirable consequences but hey, one learns about a lesson after fucking it up.

>And now you're here...
eeeyup. It looks sad but the newfag who was introduced to the chans...has ended up dedicating a ton of time without taking a break. I know how they work, I have become familiar with its dynamic, I know how to play with the rules and I know what I should do at any moment. They have become my home sites and I have /mlp/ as my most visited page, then Derpi and then a Spanish gaming site. /mu/ is up there along with Rateyourmusic...and then this place.

I might be the greatest weirdo of my town for doing this but yes, I am here, posting on circumstances that ten years ago, they would have given me a panic attack and now, I am doing it naturally. Although I have contacted and been racing with 35 year olds from other countries in GT5,back in the early 10s.

I suppose that this "gesture" comes because of giving me entertainment during my university period, accompanying me in several fucked up moments and watching how the ride becomes a personal experience that I cannot forget. I wouldn´t have thought in Summer ´14 that I would end up here, thinking that I was going to get HIV and become gay from this franchise. And in the end, it would give me a reason to live and look at the future,getting a little bit of hope and support.

Life is sometimes hilarious and really really twisted, especially with when you have the wrong expectations.
