    How was the site like back in 2019 and 2018 doe?
    Most of the older users say it was much better back then.
    I heard tasty lemon mention the community was much more banded together than now

    • Back then it wasn’t filled with cringe and unfunny jokes. It was actually used for what it’s meant for.

    • A lot of the members who have left were still online and posting, we had a few other groups as well were a lot of users would come together and create interesting things.

      The biggest difference from then and now is that we didn’t constantly see sexual remarks or lots of reposted memes. A large majority of it was done ironically or in their respective groups.

      Now we see a lot more posts from ‘kids’ who just post as follows:
      – Reposted memes
      – Sexual remarks
      – Out of context posts

      That’s all I can name right now, there’s also the occasional drama although that’s a common theme throughout all ages of Stick Nodes.

    • Kind of similar, but a lot less toxic and cringe. Back then we were just immature fucks messing around and having fun. Now it’s the same thing except we’re more “mature” and there’s a bit more drama. But hey society evolves for a reason

      • Replying to: P0lybiusKind of similar, but a lot less toxic and cringe. Back then

        Not necessarily, like esquecido said we used the site for it’s intended purpose and there were memes posted but it went into the right group and a large majority of the unfunny stuff was done ironically.

        Now it feels like all the bored not so talented users have taken over and the more popular responsible users are left in small amounts.

    • It wasn’t just a shitty version of reddit

      It was more used for it’s actual purpose and was less cringe like esquecido said

    • It actually was, now there’s unfunny random jokes, those ” groups ” that are used for ” memes ” and toxic users that people elect as their hero.

      2018, come back to me

      And now I think the admin’s mind is gone because of that

    • I am not gonna pretend like I was a very old active famous member of this site, but it was kinda similar but the animations and stickfigures were better than they are now

    • i miss the old days tbh. It wasnt a shitty 4chan ripoff back then. Back then there was a much larger community too.
      Sticknodes is kind of dying at this point in time. Oh and it wasnt a chatroom. You would see a diffrent person everyday and wouldnt see another post by them in atleast 20+ posts. nowadays its kind of…just like a small discord server…

    • smaller, of course, so yeah probably everyone was more friendly with each other since fewer people

      the community is growing year over year and month over month

      but i wouldn’t call this place toxic at all, that’s just another dead meme – everything is toxic, everything “was” better, etc-

      every single community on the internet loves to say “things were better back then” and its due to a combination of things, mainly a form of nostalgia really

      new users here will say the same in 1,2,3+ years as well

      I know even pewds lightly mocks his own subreddit for doing the same, for example

        if you don’t believe me just use the waybackmachine and find an old 2018 page of SN, and just see the community posts then

        same nonsense lmao

    • Now that I look back, even though I do miss some of the older folks who havent made a return yet, it was a lot of cringe. Please nobody go back and find my old posts, I pushed those back into the deepest catacombs of my brain.
