/r9k/ is probably the worst place to meet someone regardless of whether you're a man or a woman. There are people here worth talking to but they aren't going to make threads about
>tfw no gf/bf
And they aren't giving out their personal info. And if they do then they're attention whores or scammers.

>>81826109 (OP)
Who the fuck meets up with people off 4chan?
That sounds like a terrible idea.

>>81826192
I met up with some guys off 4chan to play video games but I also knew them for 10 years before doing that.

>>81826192
A lot of people here, apparently. There's posts all over this board about it.

Also /soc/. Never been so I can't say much about it but I assume it's for people with herpes and daddy issues.

>>81826109 (OP)
i was a successful kid (and still kind of am) but i've done a lot of reflecting and know i could have minmaxxed even harder. can't go back in the past so now i just do career guidance on the side for a few middle class kids i think have potential.

>>81826109 (OP)
r9k is fine to meet people, the problem is that you don't employ basic risk management strategies. Before you meet ANYONE online, be sure you can afford three things
>a criminal defense lawyer
>a civil litigation lawyer
>a employment lawyer
the only risk online is like a women accusing you of some shit you didn't do and people spreading rumors that gets you fired but if you have the three lawyers already retained, there's no real issue

>>81826367
>there's no real issue
Unless you meet a crackhead that molests or stabs you.

>>81826389
>molests
its impossible to get molested, stop playing bideo gaymes and watching japanese cartoons and start weight lifting

>>81826418
>impossible to get molested
Nigger I get molested as a hobby.
>t. BJJ practitioner

how old are you unironically seriously please answer

>>81826458
blowjob jutsu..?

>>81826541
Late 20s

>>81826556
Brazilian Jiujitsu. Basically gay sex with extra steps

if you met someone from r9k what would you do with them

>>81826654
Vidya. Or convince them to be racist. Probably both

>>81826744
what vidya, anon?
be honest

>>81826109 (OP)
what the fuck is with the normalfag raid about not meeting people here recently. Literally did 2 years ago and I love my gf still.

>>81826768
Ready or Not
Hunt: Showdown
Terraria if they are also madly autistic
Star Wars MB:II
I think that's about all the multi-player games I have on hand

>>81826654
sext, vidya, watch anime, shit post together, vent about stupid shit irl, sleep call, plan to meet up, meet up, cuddle, sex, go out to an arcade, kiss, etc. etc.

>>81826807
That's the exception and not the norm. Meeting people online is usually bad

>>81826887
>except not the norm
what did you run a statistically significant experiment? No you're just randomly applying anecdotal evidence at best. Hell maybe you've never even met someone online.

>>81826912
Met two, both were awkward but thankfully uneventful. Know plenty of horror stories from family and friends.

Anyway, show me some empirical data about how online meetups tend to go if you want to flash that card.

>>81826957
Yeah uh... the majority of people in the modern age meet online.

>>81826997
And how are those modern relationships working out? The majority fail horribly.

>>81827014
??? dude the majority of people meet online. You're saying this as if the other methods of meeting people aren't also likely to fail.

>>81827027
People that begin dating after meeting in person have much better chances of staying together, possibly with the exception of those who meet in bars.

The majority of people also vote in the two party system and support fag marriage and corporatocracy. The majority of people are cattle.

>>81827039
you got a source for that?

>>81827047
I hate zoomers so goddamn much

>>81827047
Somewhere I do, but I'm not digging through my folder as it has over 2500 assorted images of various data points.

You're free not to believe me, this is an internet argument. But know that appealing to "well most people do x" is fucking dumb and worth nothing to anyone with a triple digit IQ.

>>81827060
your random ass anecdotal evidence of meeting TWO WHOLE PEOPLE OMG. is not the be all end all of reality you fucking retard.

>>81827073
when you're claiming otherwise... that the majority of people don't meet online... yes I am correct in showing you stats when all you have are shit anecdotes that mean nothing to anyone besides yourself.

>>81827077
That guy isn't me.

>>81827073
This is me. Regardless, defending online meetups is a strange hill to die on.

Have you never been shown dhit about identity theft, data protection, stalking, scamming, etc? Online meetups are just way riskier than meeting someone in a public environment.

>>81827098
and you've never heard of rape, murder, stalking, or scamming irl? jesus christ dude you're a fucking retard if you think talking to people online is legitimately dangerous. what do you think we're doing right now? If you know how shit works and aren't stupid you're fine.

>>81827083
>the majority of people don't meet online
Never said that, I said SUCCESSFUL relationships are the exception rather than the norm online and that online meetups come with extra risks that IRL relationships are largely void of.

And yeah, I'll give it to you that you have some data on hand and I don't, but it doesn't disprove my thesis.

>>81827120
and according to my data... the majority of successful relationships come from online. Sure it might be that the individual chance of an encounter turning out good is lower, but overall you're more likely to get a gf online than irl.

>>81827114
>never heard of rape, murder, stalking, or scamming irl?
Nonverbal communication (and one's ability to read into it) can tell you a lot of things that a computer screen won't. Not to mention that when I talk to someone at my church they don't immediately have access to my IP address.

Sure we're communicating on an anonymous image board. Go ahead and post your address and phone number in this thread if you trust the internet so much.

>obviously I'm not going to do that
Would you do it if I said I was a girl that wanted to watch anime? Truth is that I'm a 220lb ex infantryman. I could probably manhandle the fuck out of a majority of the dudes on here if I tricked them into a meetup. I could eat them, fuck them, just be a fuckin weirdo. Doesn't matter. But there's a lot of desperate-for-pussy dudes on /r9k/ who seem to have failed to grasp the concept of online privacy.

>>81826109 (OP)
It's true. You're all subhumans and I think I've met like 3 or 4 ppl here that were actually kinda chill and we fell off for one reason or another.

>>81826204
90% of /soc/ is just gay men showing each other their cocks and meeting up to suck each other's cocks, it's grindr for people who are too pathetic for normal grindr which is already hookup hell

>>81827132
>majority of successful relationships come from online
Show me where it says "successful" or "long term" on your graph there bud.

>you're more likely to get a gf online than irl.
Sure. A gf with BPD, or an OnlyFans you dont know about, or that is a compulsive liar that will accuse you of rape....
Granted, none of these are guarantees. But when you meet someone with zero mutual associates or witnesses, and zero knowledge of their past from secondary sources you are taking on way more risk than necessary.

>>81827185
>grindr for people who are too pathetic for normal grindr which is already hookup hell
That sounds fucking nightmarish.

>>81827178
>You're all subhumans
Skindeed

>>81827166
>they don't immediately have access to my IP address.
tell me you don't know how the internet works without telling me.
>Would you do it if I said I was a girl that wanted to watch anime?
if you showed me a pic of your vagina and watched anime with me... yeah

>>81827199
>you don't know how the internet works
Depending on what messenger you use and what you send someone can easily gain access to your shit.

>if you showed me a pic of your vagina and watched anime with me... yeah
1) Sounds like you're pretty loyal to your online gf. Bet that's gonna work out great.
2) I can very easily send you a picture of a snatch and a timestamp, and get a voice changer for Discord. Then I can do the the eating and raping as explained above, unless you have the situational awareness and martial prowess to avoid said eating and raping after I ambush you. Which I doubt.

>>81827294
yeah sure bro I responded to your fucking question and you start attacking me. God you sound like such a pussy.

>>81827314
If your first response is that you want to see a pussy that isn't your girl's, that's a bad sign. But whatever man, you do what you want.

My point involving sexual cannibalism still stands. It's way harder for me to ambush someone and butcher them in my garage if you know my friends and family.

>>81827378
are you literally retarded we're talking about a hypothetical. I'm pretty god damn sure it'd be easier to kill someone knowing their whole family than not since they trust you more and you know... they're not behind a fucking screen.

>>81827396
>it'd be easier to kill someone knowing their whole family
What is a police investigation? What are ties to the victim? What is forensic evidence and being tied to the time and place of the murder?

>they're not behind a fucking screen.
Right. If they stay behind a screen, they are moderately safe. Can still get doxxed, ID theft, whatever but it's safer than physically meeting someone that you only know online. Physically meeting that person, especially if they live far enough away that there aren't any ties to known associates between them (which is more statistically likely when you talk to some random goober on an online Laotian butterfly net catalog) makes things - as I have stated - far riskier

>>81827513
I really think you're overestimating the ease of just randomly getting a person you meet online into a position where you can easily murder them. Presumably you'd need to build the relationship up for months if not years first. Show off every aspect of yourself. Go through numerous discussions about meeting up and how to do it safely. And then you end up at a coffee shop surrounded by people or something and then can immediately tell you're not a girl the second they see you approach them. No one but the dumbest retard in the world is gonna go to a back alley at night with someone they met like a week ago on 4chan obviously.

>>81827551
>No one but the dumbest retard in the world
And who browses 4chan? I also think you OVERestimate how difficult it is to murder someone. Serial killers can operate for years unnoticed. In theory, many operate without ever being caught and their victims are listed as missing persons. With AI voices and face filters, image editing software, access to an internet with BILLIONS of random faces, pairs of tits, et cetera it probably wouldn't be that challenging.

>>81827633
>and who browses 4chan
not even the dumbest retard on here would do that.

>>81827654
I once saw a man on /k/ make concentrated mustard gas in his own home to test a gas mask. He died after it absorbed through his skin.
