We need to address an elephant in the room that is the fact that this is going to be a community of *chan posters. Let's be honest, most of the people on this community ever since halfchan's conception aren't notorious for being normal, upstanding members of society even with an average higher IQ. I think we should list any hinderences or conditions we have that may cause tension or trouble down the road when this project takes off, particularly mental illnesses.
For example I'll just spout my afflictions:
>assburger
>severe social anxiety
>not diagnosed this yet, but recently I've been researching into BPD and I'm pretty sure I show all the symptoms
I feel this won't be good for me integrating in a bonded community. Anyone else feel free to confess.

Not to sound like some new-age idiot, but a lot of disorders are only problems because of the modern lifestyle we live. There was some study that showed spending time in the woods reduced the symptoms of ADHD better than any prescription drug. Since Namibia will primarily be a labor intensive, agricultural community, with very little privacy to be had, I don't think conditions like Autism, ADD, or OCD will be very important.

>>5458I'm just skeptical because I've used many *chans for years on end and I've seen all different scenarios of users coming together and what they're like. Obviously nothing of this project's scale, but even though halfchan became more "normalfag" in the past years, a majority of users are people with psychopathic, sociopathic, anxious, autistic, etc. tendencies. It's strange because the more I think about it, the less I can predict. *chan users can create both the greatest things on the internet and break out into the nastiest fights.
I fear there'll be a shootout one day in this project, or general hysteria.

That's okay. All the best people were a little unpredictable

To be fair this is likely only starting here. We're working on more professional websites and I'm personally reaching out to more normalfag adventure type people.
Myself I actually wandered into this because I was banned from halfchan's /fit/ board and decided to check out the 8chan /fit/ and saw this interesting board on the top X boards.

I'm pretty much a normalfag. I like socializing and love adventuring which is one of the reasons I'm so attracted to this project.

I'm a psych student who's going to grad school next year. Maybe I could help keep the spergs from spergin' too hard.

I've got cynical and sociopathic tendencies.
To be honest, I'm only here because I likely won't find employment soon. My reasons are purely personal.
I've got no problem busting my ass for the gain of us all, but if it becomes too shit for me, I'm fucking off back to the West.

The whole "le ebil stuoopid 4channer" came from when /b/ was being a dickface to the world and posting shit to scare people who don't understand the website away.
Anomymity is designed to give the content cogs in the 4chan meme machine (memes from dawkins not 9gag shit) non bias towards criticizing content. What better way to judge content then to potentially have someone from every group on the planet giving a review.
In short theoretically the President of the US could be posting here

AS is a condition that is defined by a series of symptoms, not by an underlying cause.
In other words, you are not actually ill, you are just an abnormal deviant in the truest sense of the word. Modern medicine does not pretend, nor does it try to cure underlying problems that are the cause of various symptoms. If you have been diagnosed with any condition, whether it is osteoporosis, ADHD, AS, SAD, etc. You are not ill, you are just out of balance, meaning that you have a deficiency or an overabundance of physical or mental properties that result from your lifestyle. Osteoporosis is a classic example of this. There is no viral or bacterial cause for it, nor is there a wound that can be treated, because it is a mineral deficiency that results from a deficient mineral intake, or a deficient mineral uptake that is often caused by a pH imbalance.
You are not broken and you do not have a pharmaceutical deficiency. Reflect and examine where your life is out of balance and your body and mind will heal themselves.
