It is truly an unmatched process. At first, during the creation of this forum, you had a lot of people from looksmax, @Looksmax Refugee being the obvious example, this website today seems like it is more about shitposting than anything else, but during its first months, it was actually more about gatekeeping the hell out of it and defining what exactly this forum was created for to begin with.
Today, it would be pretty unremarkable to state here that you have a girlfriend or whatever, considering @Atila constantly does it. But it wasn't like that during the first few months of merry old neets me, the gate keeping against ''non-incels'' was pretty heavy, I remember that even @Fabio was saying that we should gatekeep this forum as much as possible. (This dates back to either november 2020 or december 2020, or perhaps even january 2021).
This thread from 2020 should serve as an example :

As you can see, everyone goes on to bash the OP upon hearing that he has a girlfriend. (He actually didn't have one and the whole thing was made up, but that's a whole different story).
The forum was also generally more serious and had a more depressing vibe, with people posting rather brutal stories of why their lives are bad and why being a neet has hurt them so much and so on, you had eccentric users like @Abi No, @Kaz or @Alzheimer. Knajjd was still around being a faggot as usual, neither Haruhi Suzumiya nor IGiveUp were present during any of these things, forum janny was @Alexanderr, who was probably a teenager if I remember correctly.
So essentially what we have at hand is a forum that evolved from a strongly gate-kept depression fest into a shitposting fest with still some limits remaining, that being said, back then, you really wouldn't be able to get away with any of the ''cuck fantasy'' threads that Neetgod seems very fond of making.
I think this thread shows the general ''depressing'' vibe of the forum back then pretty well :

So I am curious, what do you guys think, do you think neets.me got better over time? Or worse? And why?

The problem with trying to be NT/ socialize
You're forced to become someone who you really aren't, socialisation is based on deception and hiding your true self in favour of society standards. You're put in a position of faking how you feel, what you believe, how you behave so people will tolerate you at best. You must also realise people...
So I am curious, what do you guys think, do you think neets.me got better over time? Or worse? And why?
