Strange how I only ever see the same quality of discussion on every 4chan board I visit.

/b/, /soc/, and /r9k/ are usually cited as the absolute worst boards. I have no idea why they brought back the latter, it seems to be a board dedicated to complaining about not having girlfriends.

/ck/ is the only board where I have seen consistently mature discussion and interesting threads (I'm not even really that into food).

Everything else, including /a/, /v/, /vp/, /g/, etc. are all terrible but not at the level that /b/, /soc/ and /r9k/ are.

DuckReconMajor, you still haven't explained the correlation between "chubby chaser" and...oh. Hah! I get it now.

After all these years, I still have no idea what /r9k/ is supposed to be. It's just losers whining about how bad they are with women. I don't get it.

That's basically what it is. It's meant to be a /b/ with OC but most of the users just post green text stories of how lonely they are. /r9k/ did used to be when it first started.

In all fairness, we've all done this on at least one occasion somewhere on the internet. Or maybe I'm just one of those losers.

Well, yeah. But why would they want a whole imageboard dedicated to it?

There's entire forums dedicated to that sort of thing, packaged as "dating advice" forums but in effect places where lonely men (and women) go to complain about not having girlfriends or boyfriends, instead of going out and enjoying life. They're counterproductive places to dwell in.

What's worrying is how popular some of them are.

It's 4chan. They have a whole board for Origami for fuck sake.

I tried to post a pikachu picture from google image search on /r9k/. oops.

Ha-ha, all of 4chan is blacked out right now.

I imagine this is linked to the SOPA thing... Now it's good for two reasons!

It is. A handful of websites are doing similar things. Wikipedia is completely unavailable for the next 24 hours as well.
