I believe most of the users on the internet, especially on platforms like Reddit, 4chan, and social media, are actually under 18. The reason we don't see this reflected in stats is because they all report being over 18 to bypass age restrictions and avoid getting banned. This creates a skewed perception that adult users are in the majority. In reality, younger users are way more active online because they have more free time adults are busy working or doing other things outside their homes. So, a lot of what we see online, from trends to the content being shared, is driven by people who aren't actually adults. I believe this is the case on /r9k/ too.

Interesting theory, let's see if it pans out

Lole this is funni

>>81850725 (OP)
wow i need to leave r9k. i assumed most would be 25 at least these days and not so many underages.

>>81850779
I'm telling you these kids are a quiet majority everywhere on the internet.

>>81850779
I'm lying on this stupid pill stop taking this place seriously

>>81850725 (OP)
Stop making me feel bad about posting my threads. Jesus.

I blame tiktok for this

>>81850879
tiktok definitely sent traffic here but this is the case on places like Reddit too. I realized I was arguing with a little kid a while ago. Kek.

>>81850972
You're not 72 posting here with 12 year olds

>>81850725 (OP)
This perfectly explains "r9k" discord servers.

>>81850972
Are you posting from the retirement home

This is what really matters

Already done retard-

What kind of fucking asian made that lol

>>81851223
60% of the world population lives in asia. Indians are genetically further from east asians than to Europeans.

>>81850793
the 10 year block theory of time is a fiction
t. going to college again in 25 rather than 29

>>81851187
This is wrong. Theres no way there are only 7 Indian anons here. I made a thread yesterday talking about this and it had 71 replies from pajeets calling me racist.

>>81851253
Should be more categories then, as an actual white person I do not want to be lumped together with balkans

i've been online since 98. so i'm "27"
veil of ignorance, couch of virtue

>>81851276
or the 7 indians here spam nonstop? You know they removed the poster count right?

>>81851168
Latino
Festa no ape

I'm 27 and all the anime and furry culture i grew up with is gone and the internet i knew and loved is now completely mainstream and being replaced by skibidi toilet, uh oh stinky, streamers reading the news and ai slop. Times change I guess

Looks like 44% of you should fuck off instead of wasting your teenage years on this board

>>81850725 (OP)
Jannies eagerly following this thread for all the underageb& to groom

>>81851416
Same, though I'm 4 years younger than you, but I do think shitposting and ragebaiting is funny sometimes. But those aren't *current year* things.

>>81850725 (OP)
>>81851187
Are you gonna collect all these results into one big infographic when you're done?

>>81851464
Actually, I completely agree with >>81851416 since shitposting and ragebaiting are actually old practices, fuck *current year* stuff.

25-34 boomers... How are we doing?

>>81851441
but then they don't get to complain when things go badly. they're just multiplying their future thread options.

>>81851516
>How are we doing
Shit. I haven't been to the gym in two weeks and my the tiles fell off of my bathroom wall. And my boss is retarded.

Am I 35 years old? Yes.
Did I choose the under 18 option? Yes.
Should you not have explicitly asked me to be honest? Also yes.

>>81851516
Started going to the gym recently, happy about that, but I'm still unable to get a job.

>>81851464
Even the internet in 2018 was amazing in comparison to now, i'm saying this as someone whos been terminally online since 2010, watching the internet slowly morph from the place where the nerdy werido weeb furry kids hung out to whatever this is, has genuinely been one of the most painful things i've had to watch

>>81851516
Life is getting on track after walking aimlessly for a decade. We're all gonna make it bros

>>81851583
Kill thyself.

>>81850725 (OP)
No wonder this board is so obsessed with tfw no gf garbage. Half of you are literal children.

>>81851645
What are you doing here then unc?

>>81851670
18+ board don't be a stupid idiot

>>81851621
Remember the times when all we did was make fun of nerds, retarded people and weaboos (or someone who is all of those simultaneously) while we ourselves were and still are those things?

Nice times.

>>81851680
I'm 18 unc

>>81851516
Hated working in the field for my degree, going to some trade school for 0 (zero) dollarydoos now, liking it a lot more. Saved up a little money and living with my parents again so I dont have to work during it. Feeling overall pretty good, gonna leave and try and room with a friend at the start of next year.

>>81851555
They should have to pass some kind of ugliness + retardation test to determine whether or not they might as well start posting here early. Otherwise they're just dooming themselves when they still have time to change their fates.

>>81851416
>skibidi toilet
desu don't see how it's that different from old gmod videos

>>81851670
You are here forever, kid. You will be 30 and posting among teenagers some day, so you should respect your elders.

>>81851632
You speak this way to a dying demographic? There are only two of us left, Joshua.

>>81850725 (OP)
Shit. I'd thought there'd be a majority of based Millennials here still. It's all fucking kids.
I am the Unc now.

>>81851696
go out and enjoy the world, you're wasting your life, kid

>>81851696
>unc
Does that mean uncircumcised?

>>81851710
You're thinking way too highly of people, and thats coming from someone who used to use this site when I was under 18, I was doomed before my 4chan doomscrolling
Being a 4chan user wasnt my downfall, it was being the retarded fag girl that set me up for failure

>>81851784
Women cannot fail. You are not one of us.

no shit bro
like the retard who made a thread asking about weed dealers like it isnt legal everywhere and easily accessible

>>81851784
>fag girl
Did you mean fat?
Either way, that isn't failure, depending on what you consider failure.

>>81851799
They literally can unless you consider having sex a couple times to be a win, in which case you're retarded.

>>81851799
Women in Afghanistan/india fail all the time wdym

>>81851840
I assume you were born in a 1st world country right? Don't compare yourself to women born in those countries. Strawman argument.

>>81851732
I know it, it means uncle, as in being old, i'm 27 and get called unc by zoomer bullies all the time

>>81851857
27 year olds are early zoomers actually

>>81851857
>getting bullied by zoomers
You need to get out of whatever place you're going that has those zoomers.
>inb4 discord
You need more hate in your heart.

>>81851516
I only lurk here because my delusional 40-year-old ex does and I like to keep tabs on him, I stick to the media-focused boards otherwise. These results are completely unsurprising to me though and I've tried to say as much before.

>>81851903
Are you able to identify your ex by the way they type?

>>81851878
They don't accept us, neither do millennials

>>81851886
I have to be on discord, im a nsfw artist, thats how i make cash

>>81851922
I can but I usually don't need to, he's a bit of an attentionwhore. Which sums up why someone his age would be coming here, I guess.

>>81851784
You're thinking that a shit ton of teenagers don't flock here because they think the site and board are relatively edgy and obscure compared to what their peers prefer.
I remember being 16 and browsing /tv/ and /r9k/ for a week out of curiosity; I felt significantly more pessimistic and cynical at the time. I'm lucky I had the presence of mind to realize I was warping my child brain and decided to stop.
t. cyborg/failed normie (whatever you prefer)

>>81851810
I am both a fag and a fat so both i guess

>>81850725 (OP)
>under 18

Ah, that makes sense to why this board's quality is so shit nowadays.

>>81851991
Is he fucking Doom? ahahahhahaha

HAHAHA

Aw fuck I am too.

>>81851846
I live in a third world country, checkmate

>>81852001
Trxue...

>>81852041
>I live in a third world country
What country

>>81852061
Somewhere inside this circle

>>81852122
Oh ok got it. Democratic republic of Congo. Seriously though. Eastern Europe or Southeast Asia?

>>81852122
>kuwait, uae, turkey, romania, serbia, malaysia
probably one of these but most aren't third world, only malaysia really

>>81852146
Eastern Asia, that's where all the dum monkey people are at

>>81852161
There's no such thing as 2nd world so it's third world anone

>>81852194
There is such a thing as second world wtf are you talking about lmao. You don't immediately go from Nigeria to Switzerland.

>>81852170
wowow same as me

>>81852220
I dunno, last i read about it, it was something about Norty Korea and countries like it that were "true" 2nd world
Either way my country is still considered 3rd worls

>>81852254
The only country that would be considered third world in East Asia is Mongolia though, even then...

>>81852254
That's because they used to call communist countries 2nd world

>>81850972
Hello grunc

>>81850725 (OP)
I fucking hate that I just turned 35 and the largest demographic here is under 18. Ban all these newfag retards.

>all those underagefags
I need to stop coming here.

>>81850725 (OP)
wow. ive been talking to literal teenagers in my threads about suiciding myself and wanting my waifus to be real. maybe i should kill myself.

The poll in 2014 had MORE underaged in it

>>81852264
First image that shows up

>>81852354
Ohh okay that makes more sense

>>81852442
This site has always been for underage people, I remember coming on here when I was 16 over a decade ago.

>>81852471
i mean yeah. i started coming on here in 2015, aged 14. but its still shocking how much of a majority it is, i always thought i was one of a few back then.

>>81852470
Yeah there are no third world countries in east asia according to that graph. Do you mean southeast asia?

>>81852451
me at 16, i was there browsing this board inbetween going on e621 and watching anime femboys, the internet was cooool

>>81852484
My brain melted oop
I don't know which part of Asia anymore just that asia

>>81852505
i miss this era. for me it was bouncing between /vp/ and the sailor moon forums and watching amime traps as well. i could still do the same thing these days, but it just doesnt feel the same. where did the time go?

>>81852505
>>81852527
you should be taking care of your kid uncs

This explains why everyone pisses me off, every single one of you reminds me how dramatic I was in high school
>>81850758
Purple bros.. not like this..

>>81852516
um you should be my asian gf we can have a amaf relationship lol

baby ass nigga you know dam well none of us are having kids including YOU!!!!

>>81852543
I was an internet loser and still am today, just drawing femboys today. if you're a young normie why aren't you out partying and getting laid?

>>81852527
I dont know how the internet will get worse than this but zoomers always find a way

I can see the teenagers being the ones spamming those pointless hello how are you threads, all namefags and avatarfags are clearly underage

>>81850998
got bored over at business
>>81851116
no, my own place. I didn't work hard all my life to end up here:

you don't get it, the internet is censored as fuck. Younger people like their tiktoks and are too dumb to use tech, allegedly. How would you even find this place these days? Are these alleged teens just a bunch of mentally ill larpers?

>>81853696
there are a lot of mentions of 4chan on tiktok and twitter by retards who don't know what theyre talking about. there is a whole different "r9k" community that isnt even related to the robot and is a series of discord servers that pretend to be based on this board.

>>81853736
would love to hear from some alleged teens how they ended up here.

>>81852428
Same. Why the fuck do I even bother browsing here anymore? I'm probably talking to a bunch of edgy minors every time I post.

>>81851516
My life still hasnt changed since 23 and im 31. God something help me move out and try and find a girl. I wish i wasnt so complacent with mediocrity. Its hurts

>>81853779
what the hell is that filter. that plus the ranting she looks insane.

>more 25-34 than 18-24
interesting... i really need to grow up and leave

>>81854602
Grow up and go where? The internet is full of bots, shills, and retards now. It's also largely censored to hell.
>inb4 outside
people are outside are glued to their phones and being made dumb by the internet and AI

It's existential crisis inducing to realize that I'm now older than the majority of people here.
It feels like yesterday that I was a newfag underageb&.

>33%
holy shit what the fuck. I post fucked up shit here all the time what the fuck, I thought it was like maybe, 2-3% and those were already loser no hope'ers nut 32 fucking percent?

okay sure when I got here I was 15 and underage bannu, even "lurk moar"d for an entire year just in case, but I was a no hope'r loser myself already looking up bestiality rape pokemon porn at 13 but still. what the fuck, 30%

>>81853779
r/greentext when I was 14, unironically

>>81853779
getting here as a teen in like 2008 was via hanging around something awful and newgrounds and discovering /b/ from that somehow and coming here to /b/ for its constant free porn if I hit f5! discovered the other pages. but nobody cares about pre 2016. am genuinely curious to know why/how a current teen would find this place and then decide to stick around.
