Earlier today, Majoko made a quit thread that contained a lot of interesting thoughts and feelings not often expressed on RT. One particular thought I'd like to focus on is whether RT has any real meaning or not. Do the silly threads and online friendships mean anything to you? Do the RT parties, personal servers, and RT bunkers mean anything? Will you cherish the memories of you and your old pals joking around on the forums and in-game in the future?


Majoko doesn't seem to think they do. Here are a few snippets of his lengthy quit thread that relate to this topic.

"I show you guys my talents and I feel like you care, but I'm just showing them to those over the internet and not real friends."

"I need to find friends in the real world that I can tell them when I'm feeling sad and depressed and not vent on here. It's pointless really to get the sympathy of forumers on a children's game."

"I had plenty of good laughs while I was here and I made a bunch of friends... meaningless internet friends that I'll probably never meet."


This is a difficult question to answer, and probably differs from person to person. Do friendships online mean anything in the real world? If they don't, could they in the future? Why or why not?

Well. Two or three of the friends I've made matter in the real world. (Yeah)

The rest really are just here for the moment. Gone the next

Look! Here's an interesting thread from which a good discussion could form.

Perhaps you'd like to post on it.

Eh. RT can barely start an intelligent conversation tbh. Most of the threads here are ridiculous threads made by bored people.

I read it and I thought it was pretty deep stuff too. No offense to anyone else that I may be pals with, but there's only two friendships on this game that have significant meaning- Crayon24 / luigi6780 and Jiquor.

I've been friends with them for about 3 or 4 years, and we've had some really great times. I definitally have friends irl, but friends over the internet can matter too whether or not you meet them irl. The two friends I've made are ones that are loyal, and we'd never do anything stupid to one another. I can also talk to either one of them if there's something just so stupid or embarassing that I couldn't talk to anybody in real life. I have done this before, and probably will again, and they have and probably will continue to talk to me about stuff.

All depends on the type of friendship.

There's my thoughts.

Well I'm very bored and my threads are never-not ridiculous, but that hasn't stopped me!

"i always see the good side of rt sometimes"

always sometimes is an interesting concept
it's nice that you genuinely enjoy RT though

Do elaborate!

"actually rt made me smarter"
this is an oxymoron

@dark
thanks for that well thought out response & thoughts
there may be hope for RT yet

I guess if anything else. It's a place where I don't feel out of place.

Because everyone is weird in their own way and everyone goes along with it.

yes and no

I make some fun memories, I'm sure a lot of us do

but in general it's just a bunch of crap posters making innuendos all day every day.
which gets really annoying, and is the main reason I've stopped posting very often

ROBLOX Forums are important to me and I will always cherish them in my life for one reason:
They made me change to the person I am right now.

This might sound stereotypical, but I used to be that one silent kid everyone felt forced to talk with, who no one would pay attention to or care about.

I spent 1 entire year of my life on the ROBLOX forums
like 12 hours a day
after that it was just a seldom thing to do (until recently)

I have met so many people here who have influenced me on how people actually work, how people from other parts of the world think, how human a person can be or how human they can't be, small social niches you wouldn't hear about outside the few people who know about it. The ROBLOX Forums also taught me to speak out my opinion on anything and just let it flow.

That has gotten me to many places in the past years and has changed my gloomy attitude with a bright and cheerful one.

I went from an introvert to an extrovert.
Best change I've made in my life

and for that, I am thankful.

in the grand scheme of things i'm probably not gonna go lengths to do anything for anyone i know on this site, and i'm probably gonna forget about a lot of people i know from rt after i quit

that being said though the interactions between some people seem different than my real life connections, which can be interesting and/or fun

Yeah, RT has made me reflect on my life as well, but not in a positive way.

Honestly the thought process that "internet friends aren't real friends!" is one of my least-favorite. I have friends on here that impact me in a big way and the fact that I'm discussing behind a screen doesn't change a thing.

Max brings up a good point. Just because you've never met a friend in real life doesn't mean your friendship is meaningless.
