Forums - General Discussion - Admit it! You're addicted to online validation.

I don’t have or ever have had any social media account anywhere because they’re the stupidest thing ever and they ruin the fabric of society, so..

I never had a ‘like’ in my life. I doubt I’m addicted to them.

Online validation?  lol.  I gave up on being worth anything a long time ago, plus even if I were, nobody ever gives me validation, online or otherwise.

Your post got liked, now you can't even use that excuse anymore.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Social media? What is that? LOL

I couldn´t care less. I gave up social media *almost* entirely. I say *almost* because I don´t use any popular service anymore. Cancelled my Facebook profile 03 years ago, as well as Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and WhatsApp. I have no need of those services to keep in touch with family and friends, I still prefer the old way: calling them once in a while and inviting them to come home or to do something together. Feels so much better.

I still use a few niche services, namely MeWe, Gab and Hello, but I don´t check any of them daily. At most, I check every 4 or 5 days, just to keep in touch with people that share common fun interests, like pop culture, videogames, movies, comics, travel.

As for VgChartz, this is the only website I check for videogame news. So I am always reading it but, as you probably already guessed, I don´t write much on these forums and I barely create threads. I only do that if there´s something very specific that I can´t find in any other existing thread.



Actually, I'm mostly a reader, I make about 3-4 posts per year on facebook and I don't think I've made a thread in here in ages. My posting has also gone done a whole lot. I still love this place though, I'm just not contributing as much as I used to, mostly due to limited time due to work and studies.

And cats.

I think like you... but i'm addicted on animes and hentai too.

I knew it.  Cough up that link where you're hosting the goods.  You send me yours and I'll give mine.  Message me.

Nope sorry. Don't really like or use Twitter, FB( use them for events). Don't have Instagram. Only watch YouTube for videos. WhatsApp and meesenger for talking with family in another country. No one here has ever congratulated me or validated me for anything and the like system is not used by most people here. It's just fun to talk to people about games and sometimes other stuff. Like the likeliness of Megaman x9 is really exciting for me as the X series is my favourite franchise in gaming



Just a guy who doesn't want to be bored. Also

Thankfully, this was legit since I clicked on it at work without thinking through at the time.  :::breathes sigh of relief:::

Ummmm... So was I suppose to give up mine...?
