Yep. Gamefaqs is pretty much my only social media interaction and once this kicks, its pretty much it.

Pretty much. Even if I did I would feel embarrassed talking about it because of my social anxiety.

I don't really have any friends so I don't have a need for social media? I do have Twitter to follow police chases and that's about it. Got rid of my Facebook a couple years ago and even before I trashed it I was mostly just using it to share memes with people.

I did Facebook for a while. I gave up on it for a lot of reasons.

One was actually because I'm really bad with names, so when somebody with an avatar that wasn't a photo of themselves requested my friendship, I would get really anxious over whether to accept the request. Maybe I know their face but not their name. Or maybe I don't.

Another reason is I found nobody had a filter. I saw so many stupid politics bait posts, random context-less FML posts, literal hate, etc. I even dropped several of those random FML's myself. CE is one thing but these people I actually knew, I just didn't want to see them that way.

A third was because I quickly realized there was a reason I hadn't spoken to some of these people in years. Not that I disliked them or anything, but they didn't have anything to do with my life anymore. There was no substance to the relationship, and there generally never had been.

So I just stopped logging in.

If I owned a business I'd probably be on. Since I don't, there's no need. Places like facebook also run psychological experiments on people who use them. Enjoy your free service!

Social media doesn't interest me. The people I know I talk with often, why do I want my world out there for everyone else to see? I prefer just using GameFAQs, it's simpler. I'm not exposing anything personal, I'm just talking with other people.

I have dummy accounts I use to follow people. No personal accounts. I did have personal accounts a long time ago, but I always felt pressured to post things even when I had nothing to post. Then when I did post I'd obsessively check it for likes and comments. It was a source of anxiety in other words, so I got rid of it.

props to the guys who just admit they're antisocial/don't have anything to post about, at least you all are being honest.

it's ok when most of my posts on gfaqs get ignored by internet strangers
harder to deal with when 100% of my posts get ignored by people claiming to be a friend.

now we're getting into the crux of why the average Gamefaqqer would prefer talking on a dead site every day.

again I applaud the transparency.

Well I mean there are really awesome people here and I enjoy reading everyone's stuff, and this was the original community I came to almost 20 years ago so it's kind of ingrained in my internet habits.

so to me, gfaqs is a more satisfying social experience than "real" social media.

I assume this to be the case for most guys here.

not sure why they have to put up this false air of indignation about facebook/ig/twitter. "who cares about the pointlessssss stuff on there??"

I don't like being in the spotlight, so I use the internet to find discussions about interesting topics, not to share stuff about my life (beyond when its relevant to a conversation I find interesting).

I find message boards to be a better medium for that than social media.
