Despite all the shit talking, shit posting, and shit shitting..,all the playful and sometimes not so playful bullying, I feel like the overall "atmosphere" of members actually giving a shit about other members, just little things like understanding and being interested in one another's struggles, hopes ambitions etc., is very noticeable. there is a great deal of selflessness present here. The anonymity helps with that a lot, even though I don't personally like it I recognize it is all but a necessity. Despite that it feels like we are much more in tune with each other than most large communities, which are all just absolutely filled to the brim with people concerned only with promoting themselves and projecting a carefully crafted image.
I don't throw "NPC" around a lot because I realize that those "NPCs" are simply normal humans who are extremely prone to conformity and likely experience some pretty heavy insecurities and are fearful of breaking the status quo, but there really aren't any "NPCs" that live here. Very few of you are legitimately mean-spirited, even if some narcissist or spineless cunt on the receiving end of your thoughtcrimes may say otherwise, and almost everyone is an individual.
I can't say any of those things about any other large community that I have been a part of since maybe the early 2010's.
