yeah lost pretty much everyone of value here like myself, i was just randomly stopping by for the first time in months

this place became too much incel drama shit and people demotivating/insulting others

i mean he's 100% right

well that's what you get when half the threads are either r9k posters, softcore porn, low quality bait, and retards asking how to raise test for the millionth time
board is shit right now

well no shit, we lost the spirit of Arnold

i.e. convincing nerds that life is gonna get better and that health is worth striving for

and we got infected with a bunch of unironic nazis who legitimately want to make shit worse for everyone else so they look better by comparison

its a fucking embarrassment to the actual spirit of the greats

You wish. 80% of the board is obvious racism bait, porn shillers trying to break nofap/downplay it and and gay agenda nonsense.

I swear once 2016 hit this whole website just started becoming less fun and more angry towards each other, If not at least more hostile

can’t jannies just fucking do their job

Why are the reason why the board is shit now the exact same reasons why people claimed it was shit 7 years ago? I'm not just seeing this here but other boards as well, people on /sci/ claim it's shit now because of memes that are as old as the board itself. Either there's a constant flux of people who just get bored with this place then claim anythibg they don't like is ruining the board, or people grow out of it then claim no the board changed not them.

>muh nofap

You're part of the problem.

Fuck you grandpa
Just fucking die already

I'm pretty sure it was more the doxxing and harassing

good, scooby is fucked in the head

Jow Forums was pretty god tier 2-3 years ago.
was a chill, we're all gonna make it board

>Jow Forums now
>nofap discussion more rampant
>more Christianity posting?

seems very weird, nofap was sort of a thing back then but why is everyone talking about religion so much now ?

it has changed though. Constant nofap threads, constant hair loss threads, constant porn, constant r9k incel shit, constant low effort threads like "why lift if face/money/height/whatever is more important". Even a year ago it wasn't this bad

>yeah lost pretty much everyone of value here like myself, i was just randomly stopping by for the first time in months
sure buddy. lmao

Good, I fucking hated scooby

Jow Forums and /reddit/ retards, which is basically one and same thing at this point

The christianityposts are unironically based though

this place sucks but you LARPers have always been the worst part of it
>muh romans
>muh Meditations
>muh what would zyzz do

t. been here on and off since 2009

Jow Forums happenings started to get documented and were being put on YouTube. The media also did their fare share of spreading the word of hacker Jow Forums. Not to mention Jow Forums subr*ddit posts(especially greentext posts) who sometimes sneak their way into r/all.
thousands of drooling r*ddit/YouTube teens and incels came flocking because they saw something fun in this website and took the bants too literally. It's kind of sad to still be here but it's the only place I could remember the old times

Jow Forums took over. Probably started with SIG threads.

Every thread i open about whatever subject is bound to have a race bait, religious or political commentary. I'm lurking /vr/ and /ck/ for boomer reasons and finding myself more at home on these boards.

Yea I'm thinking about finding something new, maybe I'll try /ck/

S I P B O Y S 2 0 1 9

you think the SIG threads and pol crossposters overlap?
i'm a bigtime left wing shit head and never noticed anything but positivity in those threads only love

So you agree there's a lot of overlap with pols SIG?

if you're suggesting pol has SIG threads, i don't know what they're like so i can't compare them

I agree with him
this board has really gone to shit

I still go to the gym but its not quite the same without posting on Jow Forums before or after. This is the first time i have come back to lurk and the whole board feels like spam.

They do have them, but when mods are awake it gets deleted. The entire thread is filled with people claiming improving yourself is somehow better than getting angry at others and shit like claiming the best you can do for your race/country/gender is to get them to also work on self improvement. They had an entire project to try and get young guys to lift more like that will do anything. It's fucking retarded and you can see the exact same shit in our Sig threads now.

/sig/ literally started on Jow Forums, it was moved here because mods were butthurt that it wasnt politics or recent news
Have you seriously not realised that its name is a pun?

>Have you seriously not realised that its name is a pun?
ahahahahah holy shit no i didn't until now

The board hasn’t changed much beyond the lack of tripfag personalities

This place is a fucking dumpster fire now.
The only reason I'm still here is that there's no blue board /b/.

Right now /sp/ for the shit talking and discussion and /ck/ for the shit posts are the best boards.

I keep coming back because in a stupid way this board changed my life. It was oddly motivating but not in a blow smoke up your ass kind of way. Without this place, i probably never woulda started taking squating/deadlifting seriously and just been another normo in the gym. Strength gave me confidence. And I have old Jow Forums to thank. I believe it will return, just going through a weird time right now. Still better than reddit.

Jow Forums is bad becasue it doesnt have enough people repeatedly picking up heavy things and then putting them down.

idk man I kinda dig the jesusposters, its a pretty good motivator if you can move past the "GOD IS SO FAKE ITS LIKE IT PISSES ME OFF BRO" phase

We need a new King of Jow Forums boys, that's what I think the problem is. We need to start a vote

Leave jeff

Based and redpilled

2010-2014 was the golden age of Jow Forums

I mean he's right. I remember the Scooby threads when he posted here, its right around when I started posting. Jow Forums has changed a ton since then, its completely different.

Jow Forums is dead bro, just let it fade away into the backdrop

Good. Fags and degenerates only need to be able to lift themselves over the railing.

Apart from balding threads Jow Forums has legit gotten better over the past few years. It used to be inundated with annoying tripfags living out their social lives here, cringe zzyz worship, meal prep, meal prep, meal prep. The level of shitposting is the same but just more varied than "zzyz bra!"

It's fucking sad

The whole world started going to shit in 2016. That's when being PC started to rally and the new trend was being offended for the sake of being offended. Resulting in a much more angry world.

What's the point of trying to discuss anything here anymore since everything ends up being -let this -let that with few new -lets emerging each month as fotms

>why is everyone talking about religion so much now ?
While I personally don’t mind it, my guess it’s due to the prevalence of the tranny posters. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

I like Jow Forumss current state. 2012-2016 the memes were just pre-2012 meme limbo on repeat for 4 years straight. Stagnation. Nothing was funny. Now I can usually laugh my ass off at a handful of threads in between sets.

I do wish the softcore porn was banned. I broke nofap so many times because brapposters send me over the edge.

I can't imagine ever being this wrong about anything

>people demotivating/insulting others
Do you not remember Tinytrip? He was bullied off the board by people whose bodies looked way worse than his. This place has always been negative, but it has gotten worse I’ll admit.

This. lmao

> 2016
Hello zoom zoom, that started long before the election, jesus christ. Literally before the turn of the milennium there were already people down your neck for wrongthink.

> seething tripfag

Mate, we lost him many, many years ago.
Pretty sure there is barely anyone around here today that actually whitnessed him posting here.

Had to dig really deap in my Jow Forums folder, he was here like 6 years ago.

The internet not the same.

Everyone is just trying to be edgy and just recycling stupid shit that's been popular in the past couple of days then move on to another dumb shit that become popular for whatever reason.

/SIG/ threads were routinely posted on Jow Forums, that's how I found out about Jow Forums

Well, hopefully it’s because they moved onto better things, but I doubt it. Somebody ran into Tintytrip in London and took a photo. He lost all his gains and looked like he wanted to kill himself. Now that I think about it, that was a few years ago. I’ve been here so long that it all just kind of blends together.

Lifting if anything should make people realize how fleeting things are

Even while lifting is long term self improvement and trying to maintain, it doesn't take much more than an injury or something else in life to erase results gained over multiple years in a span of just few months

Yeah the rampant Jow Forums and Jow Forums shitposting is surely better than filtering a handful of dipshits. I hope you get prostate cancer, faggot.

I think life just gets in the way for most people. Very few people are probably even still lifting from the old days.

I've been coming here 11 years and it's still the fucking same, different trends but same atmosphere

Jow Forums has always had elements of r9k, not to this extreme though.

He's not wrong. Jow Forums isn't about fitness anymore. Nowadays it's self improvement faggots, virgins with rage, racebaiting Jow Forumstards who don't know their board is sattire, faggots who think old memes like pepe and wojak are still funny, christcucks etc etc.
Barely anyone talks about fitness on Jow Forums anymore.
Jow Forums is lost.

See scooby knows that this place is an absolute cesspit and you won't make it if you don't put your Jow Forums habit out the back to be blasted in the back of the head.

>scooby will never save your cbt pics to his fap folder
That's sad man

It did not you fucking faggot, maybe the shit thread name/pun you're on about but no one gives a fuck about that.

I’m not even sure how long I’ve been here, but it’s well over a decade off and on. People have been complaining about the board since the beginning and that’ll never change. What it seems like to me is that the user base changes every couple years and the thread topics reflect that. This current crop of posters will eventually quit fitness too because they get jobs, families, lazy, etc. A new crop of youngsters will eventually take their place along with us few remaining oldfags and the cycle will continue.

To be honest this board is pretty much the same just with less newfag threads

this desu

Everyone could help to make this board better by
- reporting shitty threads and posts
- not posting shitty content himself
- not falling for bait aka not answering to bait and trolls but instead report
- putting minor questions in the QTDDTOT-thread instead of wasting space for them
- using the search function before opening a thread in order to avoid multiple threads on the same topic

It's _that_ easy and you can start NOW!

Attached: 231488666.jpg (500x500, 11K)

Dont expect any useful information on /ck/ though. It's 99% shitposting compared to the 90% on Jow Forums.

Finally someone else who gets it. I barely come here. It's just Jow Forums now. If any of the former trips of glory (Zyzz and Chestbrah, Quad, Harsh etc) were around they'd avoid/fit/ like the plague.

Christianity posting is so fucking cringe, literally like those annoying Atheists but Jesus version

>YOU DON"T BELIEVE IN GOD? LMAO LOOK AT THIS LOSER

Cringe

Most of the time this is true but it's not in this case. We used to be about motivating each other to get girls and make it, and get strong. Yes it was filled with nerds but there was an equal number of legit people from bb.com and some great trips who were legit honest dudes with normal lives, beastly lifts and great physiques.

Now there's constant circlejerking Jow Forums virgins who add nothing but endless content about shitting on women who have done nothing but have the audacity to go to the same gym as them, saying casual sex/partying is stupid etc. And these guys aren't trolling, they are serious and it totally kills the vibe. The people who had knowledge fucked off years ago. Instead of being about all making it together, it's about ripping others to shreds and blaming life for all our problems. Sure the memes have changed etc, but the atmosphere of this board has just become bitter and toxic now, exactly the same way Jow Forums did after moot killed and revived it.

>They don't know about the Discord Groups and Viral marketers shitting up Jow Forums

There's the Tranny discord and the Cuckold discord. They both have bots and raid just about all boards constantly because they are shut-in neets.

Whenever you see pedo/racebait/tranny/gay/lefty off-topic shit it's almost always them.

The boomer/sip meme was invented by Monster viral marketers. /tv/ has a fuckton of paid netflix and disneymarvel shills.

>We used to be about motivating each other to get girls and make it, and get strong
What? When was this? There was a flood of “we’re all gonna make it, brah” posting when Zyzz died, but this board has been tearing down people since forever. Tinytrip got called a monkey constantly and people made pictures about deadlifting his parents out of their graves. This place is the same, the threads are just a little different. I’ll admit that there are less actual lifters here now then there used to be.

this, the discord trannies are destroying everything

>Tranny discord
welcome to 2016, newfag. Aero's cult has been at it for a while.

I still remember the first day Scooby visited us. He even made a thread.
*sobs*
Life was so much better then. Well not for me, I was depressed and suffering from agonizing anxiety, but this place helped me so much.

>it's the boogeymen

Metaposting ruins boards. Discord trannies would be irrelevant if you didn't bring them up every thread

See, this is the reason. Fucking /b/tards coming over here from their containment boards acting edgy because they're on Jow Forums

Act like a person you stain

t. lurker for 2 years

this board went from laidback health and fitness banter to INCEL nazi lookism dyelfest

I for one blame the Jow Forumstards trying to get fit for le upcoming race war

>himself
Excuse me, it's MA'AM.

/Thread

People called Redwood a nigger all the time. Racism and negativity aren’t anything new to Jow Forums or Jow Forums in general. If anything I think there are way more non-whites here then there was before and that causes clashes because it makes the racism more noticeable and inevitably brings out the white knights to oppose it.

Been here for 8, you are wrong.

Clearly you haven't. He's right.

It’s always people that have been here a year or two that complain the most about the board being shit and not like it use to be when in reality the board has always been similar to this. People come here and they want to change the board into what they want it to be, but that’ll never happen and they eventually leave after complaining a lot. The people who last the longest here are the ones who accept this place for what it is and just roll with it.

>t. lurker for 2 years
election kiddy from the other side is thinking he is anything better than his opposing group

Post body

yes it fucking did, I used to spend a lot of time on Jow Forums back in the day, forgot about it for like 5 years, came back recently and it's fucking unrecognizable
10 times less actual passable as Jow Forumsrelated content, and all the content that is not Jow Forums related is just MISERABLE and depressing
it used to be just fun trolls and fucking around all in good mood and spirit, even Forever Alone threads that existed back then were nothing like the "I never touched a girl I want to kill myself" threads we get here now

It’s always been wading through shit for legendary threads.

This. You just dont remember the shit. Selection bias or something
