The truth about this forum, video games and online communities

[Narcissus🥀]

I had an awakening moment of clarity that casted it's light upon the truth.

I was playing FIFA (PES) with my friends, and my cortisol was high,  analyzing every minute and small detail in the game.

I was so invested and focused on it, when we finished playing my mind was blank, free of all distractions....

And suddenly it hit me.
"Why the fuck do I do this shit every day after work?"
And then I remembered this forum, they are not so different from each other.

Let me explain how.


The reason why we spend time here is because we are rejects.

If we had the chance to be any place we wanted then none of us would choose to be mentally present in this forum, maybe only for the unlucky few who have no fortune in life.

€-{Men have two fantasies:
1. Is to be a member of high status in the hierarchy of his circle, the most popular/skilled or even well known.

2. women}-).

We try to live these fantasies in online forums, porn sites or video games because we're unable to experience them in real life, we are wired to try everything we can to achieve them, it's in our nature.

That's why most of us are immensely invested in games and are chronically online, we try to replicate that feeling of being at the top.


I play alot of fifa trying to be the best player and to prove myself as the most skilled, but if I was a world champion in some sport would I give a fuck if I lost a game of fifa?

No.
I don't care about being the 'Alpha' in a group of useless game enjoyers, instead I want to achieve success on something that is on a much bigger and more masculine scale.

Most rotting users who post thier "slays" are just larping, why would you try to act as an 'alpha' here if you're living the great male fantasy in real life and are an alpha in the stage of the real world?


This forum is nothing but a coping center, where unsuccessful men in real life choose to dwell to feel better about thier shortcomings and try to trick themselves into thinking they have achieved the male fantasies.

Same thing goes with video games.

That's why I deleted all my games two months ago, and now I will no longer go play with my friends.

A great quote
" The size of your problems decide the size of the man you are"

Imagine your problems being with how many reps you have, or how are you going to get better at a game.

" Ohhh how do I stop jerking off?"
" Ohhh I can't beat this boss"

"I want to become a better person"
"I need to become a leader to my people"


Get yourself more serious and important things to occupy your mind, things that have great influence over the people and your surroundings, and then you will become a bigger man.

I agree pretty much 100% however I personally only ever really viewed vidya as a time waster. I haven't played really games in a long time I only occasionally boot up something and play for like 20 minutes if I'm bored. Problem is when time is a limited resource there's no real good reason to waste it. Your time would be better spent fixing your brain so you don't feel the need to procrastinate by playing vidya and instead, focus on achieving the things you want to better your real life.

easier said than done, the reason most of us are here are because we're incapable of that

Good thread bhai, and yeah you're spot on regarding the vidya cope, it was always an escape from reality for me, since an early age, was and still am a loser with no friends, and so to simulate the innate desire, of like you said, to have friends and feel powerful and skilled I coped a fuck ton with vidya, felt powerful, cool and strong playing as some of these characters, because I knew that I would never be even 0.0001% as cool as these characters. But I just don't know what to do, if I delete vidya, delete account on here I'll just end up rotting on youtube or 4chan, I genuinely, genuinely have nothing other than this, I don't even have that "kinda" friend group where you kinda just shoot the shit with each other, I don't have that irl nor online, and so deleting, blocking, whatever my E copes wouldn't amount to anything. Life had just been an endless cycle of loneliness, each day feels the same, im not, and I can't progress towards anything in life, im already in purgatory I feel like.

I hate how much time I have wasted on vidya, but I have nothing else in life and so I will waste even more of my pathetic life on virtual copes.

 

[ChadL1te]

Good thread, although I would have to disagree that you can’t play video games or be here while improving your life

Don’t let the sunken cost fallacy make not want to change. And you don’t have to quit fully but if you view it as a problem maybe just cut back a bit.

I wouldn't mind quitting entirely, but I just don't know wtf to work on, which skill or whatever to learn, I wish I had a high enough IQ to self study some cool shit like coding or hacking, but yeah it won't happen cuz im too fucking dumb, and I don't have any connections im not NT so wtf am I left with to do, I dont wanna sound pessimistic or lazy, but im serious idk wtf to do with myself, ive already wasted so much time in my life and it actually saddens me knowing how much time i've lost and unfortunately will continue to lose and pointless BS

Yeah I understand. You don’t seem dumb at all from your posts. It’s never too late if you’re still in your teenage years or 20s. I just lack the motivation primarily and choose to rot online.

Go back to school or something like to uni and force yourself to have reasons to go out. I think that’s what I’m planning on doing to get out of the rut I’ve been stuck in.

by dumb I just mean im average in intelligence, average IQ, which from looking at average IQs for jobs that pay anything decent is not enough, as for going back to school, i've been thinking about that, I wanna retake my A levels, which I think the US equivalent is AP classes, and to do any decent course at university (American college equivalent in the UK) you need to score good on the A levels, but then again idk cuz I read shit online all the time about how niggas will go to these good schools, get good grades, just to get fingered in the ass by the job market, and not get anything, or get the literal worst shit on earth and be earning minimum wage whilst working 60+ hours a week, idk I guess this might sound like im lazy because I won't figure shit out on my own, but things just feel so over complicated and no one wants to help younger people like myself because of this retarded mentality of "oh well I struggled, wasted time and money and had a shit life, so should you" that mentality is spread across just so many things, but idk maybe im just coping.

Everyone tries to project himself into the biggest and most succesful scenario possible in his mind, and if he can't then he chooses the second option that is closer for his current possibilities, aspirations, effort level and reach

Well in my case parents gave me iPad early , got addicted to vidya , but now I play less

Only a small portion of the decisions we make have any real impact. Obsessing over details is useless

You want to be the biggest fish in the pond, but there’s always a bigger fish. It is easiest to artificially limit the size of the pond. As long as you never meet the people more powerful than you, you can live happily in the illusion you create.


The reality for most men however, is they are the small fish in the smallest of ponds already.
