/ot/ - off-topic

I'm kind of famous in a certain scene and I just keep out of drama and act like a normal decent human being. I've noticed that doing this isn't enough though, some jelly bitch will always come up with excuses to talk shit about you. But it's just better to let them be and not give them actual reasons to hate you and live your life like normal without being a drama queen and thinking twice or more times what you post online under your name. If something shitty happens, damage control is just to be adult about it. Not being a lolcow isn't very hard.

I don't really care about being internet famous but it would be cool if I could get attention trought my work in customizing BJD's, since I paint them, sew their outfits, do their wigs,etc…

It would probably a pain in the ass tho, so I don't really know.

I spent a long time wanting/trying to be "e-famous." Now that social media has made it all too easy, I'm over it. It was mostly from me being uncool, so at least I could say I was cool on the internet.

I would have probably been a cow.

There's a lot of work that goes into throwing your stuff on every site. Sounds draining.

If I looked good enough to be e-famous and could use it to somehow make money off it, maybe I would. As far as not being a cow, I'd be vigilant about protecting my irl identity and styling myself unrecognizable in pictures etc. It would be cool to be popular and adored (for no real reason) to see what it's like, and if the anxiety didn't kick in then I'd just have fun with it until I got bored and it stopped giving money

I'm not internet famous and most likely will never be. And I'm glad this is the case, because it seems like the good sides and the bad sides and internet celebrity aren't equal at all. What's good with being internet famous? Maybe some people will have a good opinion of you even though you'll most likely never meet them, maybe people will send you presents or donations.

But it's not worth it when I think about how some people are making fools of themselves in front of a huge audience, could be stalked, have their private information and life described in details for everyone to see, or have their reputation ruined because of some jealous people. That's my personally opinion, maybe there could be other good reasons to become internet famous.

i would definitely like to be somewhat famous mostly because i dont have many friends irl and if i was famous more people would notice me, and i would probably click with a few of them so id have more friends. i would also like to earn money from just posting pics on instagram. but i understand that if you want to be famous then its not just "posting pics", you have to really spend time and work hard and it doesnt seem worth it to me

Lel you are probably a cow thats being ignored. I hate the hypocrites like you here

>>62603
Yes I would. Tbh I am not a farmer in the sense that I am a bully since I simply use /b/ and /g/ because there are no other good image boards for girls so I wouldnt feel guilty at all. If I'd end up here I'd probably post in that thread and ask nicely for constructive criticism. Deep inside I would be thrilled with joy to realize many weebs are wasting their time to talk about me. They are in denial but I know they realize that. So yeah I dont care if I'd end up here. Unless they would sink so low to talk about my family then I'd probably be furious lel. I'd just ask kindly to please delete the posts and just talk about me in any way you like.

TL;DR I dont care and I'd join the discussion

Are you too retarded to express yourself in words?

Used to be a little known in some circles and tbh it was pretty neat.

But I wouldn't go back to it or aspire to be more famous than that. I'm a little too sensitive and while I understand that we laugh and milk cows for drama but don't necessarily hate them (and sometimes we actually like them), it would still break my heart.

Besides, attention whoring makes me feel bad. I wouldn't have the courage to willingly try to make myself famous.

>sink so low to talk about my family then I'd probably be furious lel. I'd just ask kindly to please delete the posts

If you know how chans work, why do you think this has even a chance of working? People here don't give a shit when talking about cows if the cows are mad cause their family/friends are mentioned

No. It's a desperate cry for attention and it's embarrassing.

>>62658
Especially if it's fame for the sake of fame.

Well, not everyone on chanboards is edgy, despite the overwhelming underaged brethren. But thinking about it again, I think it's just better to ignore my thread then. I mean tbh, the most active threads on /pt/ I can think of are pics provided on their own instagram and when I scroll their threads it's actually more a thread dedicated to their photos because normal people dont have the time to read all the posts. And even if I'd read it, it just reminds me of those typical youtube comments. All they do now is post their already public pics and laugh at them without posting actual milk. maybe it's because I'm older but its been a half year since I checked /pt/ and it isnt so scary to be posted there at all lel. I admit, if I wasnt famous and someone would post me now I'd be butthurt. But if I was I'd be flattered tbh.

I noticed "E-bullying" changed, is introduced to normies and "cows" get quickly old now especially if they arent "cows"with millions of subscribers. Websites like encyclopedia dramatica are irrelevant and no one gets mad if they get a page anymore.

S-sorry for my blogpost.

I don't really want to be famous personally.. For my art I would like recognition, I think most people do.Anyways, there's too much stupid shit that you could dig up about me from highschool. I would be a cow but the kind that falls off really quick because I'm not dramatic enough. Some cringey photos and statuses here and there pretty much. Also I don't use social media enough to become famous anyways.

Fuck no, I've developed a serious distaste for having an online presence and am very private. I don't have any profiles these days other than empty sock accounts, I've deleted everything (even facebook). I hate taking photos of myself or having any online, I don't want anyone knowing about my life, and I don't want a record of my comments. I don't want to deal with any online interactions so I just stick to anonymous discussions. I think my disinclination towards attention whoring would prevent people from hating me, but I'd never get famous in the first place because of it.

Though I guess it would be really different if I was pretty with a great life that I want to show off.

Basically everything this anon says.

Basically just use common sense. It's what all of the cows are lacking.

>>63507
Don't forget self-awareness to match that common sense! A lot of cows preach about certain things, but then do exactly what they're supposedly against. Some of them do it specially for the attention - others are just lacking in self-awareness.

To answer OPs question, no I would not like to be internet famous especially being internet famous just for the sake of it. I like my privacy too much to chase after it and its meagre rewards. Even considering the fame of those who aren't cows and get mostly positive attention, it still doesn't seem worth it to me. I spent enough time online as it is: I don't think spending more of my time constantly updating my social media accounts with decent content so my followers won't get bored of me is how I'd like to spend a few years of my life. Constantly being bombarded with comments across all platforms would be overwhelming - especially as I'd want to reply to those who took the time out to ask me questions. I think it'd be too physically and mentally exhausting. But, you know, to each their own.

I'm starting to really hate having some sort of presence online too, even though I'm far from being famous. I only have a tumblr as I avoid facebook like the plague and I deleted my twitter some months ago. At first I made a tumblr because of fandom things and I wanted to meet people with the same hobbies as mine, but now that I actually know some specific people on tumblr and that we all changed with time, I kind of want to avoid them. I'm mostly reblogging things and posting a lot more on anonymous boards nowadays, it's so much better, I feel a bit more free to do and say whatever I want.
