I admit I have never used the board for what it is intended for

Catherine Wheel · 10-14-2013, 11:54 AM

....which is social interaction. Instead I have used it as my own personal blog of sorts as well as for performance art type stuff. I have always had my own separate agenda and motives while here. Someone recently brought to my attention that I "seem much more like an observer of human interaction and not a participant."

I've never been able to tell for sure whether you were trolling. But I would have bet on trolling.

Catherine Wheel · 10-14-2013, 01:12 PM

No. Obviously not. You had to even ask that? You think I go trolling around on personality type forums and philosophy forums with this? Come on.

reprise85 · 10-14-2013, 01:23 PM

the question is could you use the board for social interaction if you wanted to

Catherine Wheel · 10-14-2013, 01:48 PM

Years ago before I came here I posted on audiogalaxy and there I actually was able to interact more with people. But still in a limited way. I did a combination of what I do now and I actually chatted / made some acquaintances.

But by the time I got here I had no real interest in that anymore. I've always been closed off so it had nothing to do with that. I think I saw a level of dysfunction here and on audiogalaxy that I didn't want to be involved with. Honestly sometimes I felt like it was beneath me to interact with people here. Also as my interest in psychology grew it became more about being an "observer" than a participant here.

God it feels like this place is heading towards a fucking mass suicide. So much anti-social depressed naval gazing here now.

i've been thinking this a lot lately. a lot.

MyOneAndOnly · 02:38 PM

if you don't feel the desire to have honest dialogue with people I don't think you should beat yourself up over it. Not everyone is outgoing. Not everyone enjoys engaging in banter online. If you troll, though, in an effort to avoid being genuine, then I think you have a problem.

10-14-2013, 02:36 PM

I use this place as a blog, for trolling and social interaction
You can do it all you just aren't as much of a visionary as I am I guess

Catherine Wheel · 10-14-2013, 02:39 PM

It may come off as trolling but in a lot of ways it's really blogging. Just having an audience for whatever is on my mind.

isn't shitting on everybody else kind of a symptom of the same psychology, just expressed in a different manner? I.E. self loathing?

"seem much more like an observer of human interaction and not a participant."

This relates to being introverted as well as having an interest in psychology. Because psychologists are observers of human interaction but as a closed off person I find myself in that position rather than participating.

reprise85 · 10-14-2013, 08:57 PM

I'm introverted and observe a lot in real life. But the purpose of a message board, if you post on it, is interaction. Otherwise you're just jerking yourself off.

Plenty of people just watch but if you put something on it yourself, why do it except to have a conversation. Sure sometimes people post in a blog like way but it's not livejournal.
