Tell me your kohl retirement stories What made you leave kohl a seek a new kc home? In my case, too many pedos and the mods do nothing about them and even encourage them.

Let's just remember to be nice to each other.

also hate pedos It takes time to adjust from kohl, kohl trains you to hate every other poster there and to not want to make quality posts.

>>21350 Tell me your story >>21349

>>21349 >>21352 >It takes time to adjust from kohl, kohl trains you to hate every other poster there and to not want to make quality posts. How much time it takes to deprogram yourself from kohl?

>>21354 I dislike pedoshit, polshit and pornshit, which make up 99% of kohl.

Welcome home. Esti is besti.

>>21355 We can try it out: Welcome home Bernd, how are you?

>>21361 Good. You?

>>21349 I quit it in 2020, too many schizo board personalities. Randomly found this place this summer.

>>21365 >I quit it in 2020 What did you do in the meantime?

>>21365 >Randomly found this place this summer. I wonder if there are OGs here who already posted in January/February 2025

>>21367 Me.

>>21366 Quit IB's for good pretty much with rare visits to select 4kanker hobby boards.

>>21364 Well, I expected >FUCK YOU MOUNTAIN JEW ANSWER MY QUESTION So, I'd say, you're already quite deprogrammed. I'm also good, listening to the the weekly album pre-stream.

>>21367 One of the first 10 threads of /b/ was a hyena thread. Thats how I remember its birth.

>>21349 Basically the same. I quit originally in I think it was 2022 when there was that huge influx of them and mostly stayed away. It's one thing being typical cold and autistic bernd, but reading the posts of nonironic sexual predators all day is just depressing.

>>21369 Yeah, but what did you do instead? I'd also like to quit IBs for good, even though KC is okay.

>>21374 Well, it was never my main pastime. Like I wrote in the hobby thread, after a year or so of quitting Kohl and video games I got into miniatures and did that obsessively to this day.

>>21379 >it was never my main pastime Good, very good. That already puts you far ahead of me. I only succeed in doing that temporarily, for example by getting really invested in films or books. But I always relapse.

I guess I can speak for everyone that corona brought Kohl to its limits at first and then this dumbass roosia urine conflict gave it the rest.

>>21387 I found Kohl during Corona and closed it again within minutes. Those were crazy times for someone who hadn't lurked since a while before KC shut down.

>>21387 old krautchan could get pretty bad though with /pol/shit, I hope that doesn't come back

>>21389 Better cancel your internet service in 2026 then. :3

>>21388 Kohl was so funny during Corona. Still remember the ban on my first post when clarifying some bs.

>>21408 Damn, I wanted to check when it got so crazy, but their cloudflare blocked archive.org

>>21412 https://archive.is/https://kohlchan.net/int/catalog.html

If you allow pedoniggers, decent posters quickly jump ship. What you're left with is a morass of angry schizos and perverts, with a few unhappy Bernds mixed in.

>>21418 Is that moobie good? I never finished it

>>21419 Idk, I just like the meme.

Spent some time on Kohl today. The amount of posts there that are made by genuine schizophreniacs and lunatics (not in the funny "I insult you" but in the "I completely believe the most insane shit and people are out specifically for ME" way) is honestly flabbergasting and I am glad that there is now an alternative with decent activity. Shouldn't have been surprised though. It's what you get when you actively protect nonces and have an admin who is not a vaxx skeptic but a genuine vaxx-meltdowni

>>21431 not to mention a major Z-supporter who had a meltdown when RT was banned.

>>21349 >In my case, too many pedos and the mods do nothing about them and even encourage them. this i could deal with the fall of quality, something could be saved among the trash but them ruining every thread and with their stuff ruined it completely for me

>>21456 Yeah, I remember that, that was hilarious.

bruh i accidentally came here instead of kohl (old habbit) and thought they changed rules

>>21431 Sometimes I'd even try to help them out in threads and they'd angrily disagree and eventually decide that I'm also in on the plot of their downfall.

>>21349 Tbh old KC at the end was pretty bad already and it just continued on Kohl. I never minded a rougher tone, but over time the culture just degraded, because Neubienen thought that free speech means to just shit on everything and random insults in every thread are some kind of valuable contribution. In turn every Bernd with a bit of self respect, that once delivered OC and interesting threads left and now Kohl is an absolute cesspool of shit devoid of any OC and creativity and they are completely oblivious to the causes of the decline. >>21367 I did. Must have been at the end of February. I wanted to visit Ernstchan, but didn't remember the domain and looked for ernstchan.org and got here.

>>21610 Free speech on imageboards is a tricky problem. Most admins look at reddit or something and see everyone getting banned for extremely arbitrary nonsense and then just do the polar opposite and allow absolutely anything that isn't spam or blatantly illegal. However all you do then is accept all the absolute worst users who have been banned from everywhere else due to the fact that they're terrible people, and that's basically the reason why kohl is 90% sexual predators and aggressive schizos.

>>21629 Yes, that's why a certain culture has to be enforced, which naturally limits free speech. Free speech is a meme and always leads to bottom of the barrel quality. I think nuKC does this pretty well so far. It's also growing slowly, but steady, which is a good sign.

>>21629 >Free speech on imageboards is a tricky problem no shit

i quit kohl when kcmods started shitting their pants bc vaxxing. returning 2-3 years later only to discover that all the antivax schizos now being ztards and very sensitive about being called waldi. left again.

>>21645 Great that you found this place!

>>21645 antivaxxer threads were quite fun. easy troll targets

Hate pedos and schizos, simple as

>>21645 Why are waldimods like that?

Welcome brother. Same reason as you. Most people there are not bernd but cynical always angry and mean pedos.

>>21645 You are totally not fishing for loosh, are you?

>>21349 When the hell did you see a π€∆0 thread during the last several months?

>Can't believe I finally found a true kc home So is my KC a fake home?

>>22864 Yeah thats exactly what OP says. He talks specifically about you.

>>22865 Rip ;_;

>>21349 >What made you leave kohl a seek a new kc home? pedos, avatarfagging (catspamming luxembourg comes to mind), always the same fucking threads on /int/, dealing with zoomer incels woe is me i will never have gf types..yeah

>>22952 >woe is me i will never have gf types.. Isn't that the single most "successful" thing that came out of the old KC?

>>22953 That would be "Wojak" and countryballs.

>>22953 well, i mean we were all young and desperate in our younger years i guess, but now with over 40 years being on this planet i have to laugh thinking back. Zoomers have so much communication tools to find gf and women don't really hide their "nerd" hobbies anymore. And no, i'm not talking about those who just put on a show without really being very interested in their hobby. Also: you still have to have some confidence / care about how you look to be attractive, but it's not impossible. t. rather ugly Bernd who had some gf's in his time.

>>22954 Wait, wasn't Wojak "that feel" (when no gf) from the beginning? Or did that come later?

>>22957 Hmm, guess you're right.

>>22957 indeed it was. Nobody could have imagined that this meme would spawn such a massive wave of shitty edits and offshoots (soyboy)..pretty tired of seeing wojak memes.

>>22959 Also, how "feels bad man" aka the sad frog turned into an everflowing stream of shit.

>>22959 I've seen an edit (probably on twitter or something, as I didn't lurk imageboards during the rona years) which went roughly like this: 2011: <4chan ragefaces, one wojak> 2015: <reddit ragefaces> 2019: <extinction event> 2021: <all wojaks> Does anybody have that saved?

>>22967 Oh I suppose I could've just googled it, they did post it to reddit. Though I remember a grittier version.

Yeah, this place is cozy. Kohlbernds are fucked in the heda, and not in a good way.

>>22952 >catspamming luxembourg comes to mind Some one called cat Bernd?

>>23002 Spotted hyenas are cats as well.

>>21645 >antivax schizos >everything turned out to be true who's the schizo now? Also: enjoy your bloodclots t. pure unpoisoned blood because i live in an actual free country where the choice was mine if i wanted to be injected with this experimental poison or not

>>21645 >You must take the vaxx otherwise you are a schizo! You are mentally ill yourself.

>>23022 <everything turned out to be true Yeah thats what schizos say. Everything is not possible to turn out true, because some theories contradict each other, so they cant be all true. >t. pure unpoisoned blood Dude, have u checked the sky lately?

>>23023 There are a few good arguments against taking that specific vax at that time, but antivaxxers usually skip right past them and dive into Bill Gates is sterilising us all

>>21349 >too many pedos >onions are always remarking about your country while hiding their flag >pro Russian mods getting butthurt from being called Waldemar >/b/ completely full of Q-anon AfD boomers who seem very mad that the WEF "Great Reset" and "New Normal" conspiracies went nowhere. They still talk about muh vaxx and lockdowns to this day >full of 4chan imports >/int/ has like 8 different attention whores blogging about their extremely boring lives every hour while the rest of the Kohlköppe cheer them on >everyone on /b/ is extremely angry and paranoid most of the time and they call each other shills constantly

>>21349 not a retirement story but I enjoyed when I got banned because the guy I linked some statistics to (german gas usage statistics in 2022 to be precise) turned out to be a mod and banned me for disagreeing with him ("being a paid shill")

>>21349 Waldemar moderation Anti vaxx Onion posters from 8chan or something were the final nail on the coffin
