This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The hardcore forums survived.
Are you kidding? They were some of the first to go.
What makes you think so? I read hardcore as 'small and tight-knit', exactly the kind of forum that could survive easily on user donations and due to the more personal relationship there's more loss in leaving it. I know some forums that fit that description that are still around now.
So so so many of my old favorite forms are dead. I'm not sure I agree with you
I'm sorry to hear that. For me I've seen far more (relatively) big forums either turn into a discord, a subreddit, or just die out altogether due to being unsustainable for it's cost. Just seems more logical to me that the less personal places have more trouble sustaining themselves, but we can disagree on that.
