Have you made literal friends on NB?

[itachi4real]

Don't waste your time on him. It's not worth it.

Lmaooo im done... if u think some people or here are
Ur friends then explain to me how. U can say u associate with them but friend is too deep.

 

[Chatte]

What?? Yall are talking reckless on this forum. U misunderstood my post. U need a connection/bond but thats not all. Like i said just cus u make a bond doesnt mean their ur friend. If ur still in school you'll understand once u graduate. Now about friend on this forum. U dont even know these people yet u would call them a friend. A friend is there for u whenever through thick and thin. U dont know it means to have a friend. U have associates but not friends. Friends is someone who isnt a stranger unlike on this forum. Most of u couldnt tell me ur so called "forum friend" fav color or food. So stop it. I can see if yall this person everyday and go through everything together. Lol yall kill me. I see ima have to take a break from this craziness lmao

Lol comparing school with something different... Dude, friendship is friendship. If you saw everyone in school being your friends but when you graduated, they weren't around, that means your views were not good.

I graduated from school, uni, whatever, and I still have friends from those times. Difference?! I knew which were the friends and which were the simple... colleagues/classmates and that's it.

There's a slight difference... now if u don't know how to distinguish it, that's your thing. But don't tell others who are their friends or who aren't.

OT: Yup, I've made few friends here on the base with whom, maybe, someday I'll even be able to meet.

With some people here I can have fun talking with, I got to learn a lot of other dutch people here on the base and I talk regular with them. I mentioned on my previous thread about draft and everztar. They are my best friends on the base.. Cause I can talk with them about anything. And they also listen, We can have serious convo's but also funny convo's. I can relate more with them then some people I know in real.

But since you can't comprehend that, you won't understand it.

No, I finished school; well aware. I'm not dumb. I feel as if you make the effort to get to know someone you can be just as good friends online then offline. I can't even tell most of my non-forum friends favorite food or colour, since that is something of no importance. Your opinion = my opinion, don't be calling people silly for having friends on a forum, people can do what they want and how they want, they are not here to please YOU, shouldn't bother you. If you don't think this is proper friendship, swell for you; others it is different. Actually I know these people, cause you know something? I go out of my way to get to know people that have the same interests as me, and whatnot.

One other thing, what does being in school have to do with this topic?

You kill me, have an open mind instead of a close minded one. I have met some of the best people here, I can tell you most of my friends, favourite show, music, etc..

Lmaooo im done... if u think some people or here are

How what? I feel as I explain above, and others have to. If you don't like the idea of online friends, don't have any; your choice. Shouldn't judge or criticize others for wanting that, or having that. No, friend is not to deep.

Maybe, just for yourself if you are willing to; talk to someone they make surprise you, you might make a friend.

With some people here I can have fun talking with, I got to learn a lot of other dutch people here on the base and I talk regular with them.

Going to his this fellow as an example, we got off on the wrong foot, but now we have nothing against one another. Even if we don't consider each other friends, we are good terms acquaintances. ^^

Hmmm now this is quite the odd predicament. Friendship is a mutual bond between others. I would consider many people my friend though I have not met them in real life. I find it quite entertaining that you're giving out advise, talking about graduation and such when you have the grammatical skills of a dead sea horse. It amuses me to no extent that you come in here, spout your words of misunderstanding and then attempt to break away. Either you're a troll or an idiot. I see you as both so far and nothing would change my mind about the matter unless you prove that you're not just being an inconsiderate prick. Instead of going against what other people say, how about offering an opinion which can help others understand how you feel towards the topic at hand.

Now watch as I leave, I will not return and defend myself if you have other foul things to say, I will not hold a grudge. In my mind you're nothing but a lonely little child, out to cause grief because you yourself are unhappy.

PS. Santa isn't real.

 

[vasu 32]

well yeah i suppose.

 

[Allsymbolsparttwo]

Me and a person got into a heated discussion about "meeting strangers" online. He said something like NarutoBase "isn't a big deal" cuz you don't actually know these ppl so you can't be real friends. I'm not saying NB is a big deal but...

Don't you think that after awhile, you can truly call someone a friend even if you've never met in real life? How can you talk with someone everyday but never make any sort of...connection I guess?

There are ppl on NB I call my friends. Not "ppl I don't know" cuz in a way, I do know them. I may only know what they choose to share but if we get along really well, why can't I call them an actual friend?

This is just my opinion...it made me kinda mad that this person (he isn't on NB btw) said I shouldn't call ppl here friends.

What's your opinion?

you had a heated talk over NB?? Lol you need help

 

[Chatte]

Gee because having a conversation with someone about a certain something certainly means one needs help. U_U

 

[-S-]

What is a friend? I have mates.

 

[Netferarri]

Yes I have made 4 really close friends on the internet that I can share my private life with. I feel comfortable with them.

 

[Katkot]

You guys are really lonlely that's why you came to NB just to talk with other people.
Isn't that obvious ..

Back in early 90's there was no Internet so the kids in my generation used to spend more time together.
In early 2000's , I used to have lots of friends from school, work, neighbours and club.

Now when Internet became major thing in people life ,Most of people are spending more than 12 hours daily behind screen which will destroy their social life.

I don't think Internet is healthy way to communicate with other people unless you feel shy to meet people then I can understand that however it's hard to live alone but that's life and whenever you make friends someday you will have to leave them or they have to leave you that's why I prevent to make my relationship with others so strong because it will be less painful when they gone ..

I had a lots of experience about That , it's really hard when someone so close to you leave you suddenly ,It's really hurt but you have to learn from your previous experiences ..

 

[Salad]

Hmm yes, I know a few people that I could consider a "friend" on here.

Exactly....lmaooo its crazy how people on a FORUM consider each other friends:|

 

[SIR HERDERP PRESIDERP SDO]

Yes, I even have some of them on my Facebook *_*

 

[The Sach]

Brothers = PainToTheEarth , M and Punk .

Close friends = Parrish , Yo papi and so on .

Amusement = Okami .

I am feeling little sad, because I am unable to see my name in that list.

LOL at all the idiots who thinks they have friends on NB.


^I'm surprised I haven't already read a comment like that in this thread.



OT: I guess it depends on one's concept of a friend. In a lot of cases, the truth is hidden from offline friends. I've seen a few members saying, "My friends don't even know I watch anime. I don't want to tell them." Why? For a lot of people, that's just one secret out of dozens. Even with our real life friends, many of us still fear the judgmental habits that we humans have. That alone could turn into a philosophical debate - what are friends if they not only don't know everything about you, but you fear letting them know everything?

The 'answer' to that is for another time, though it would still be opinion based. I just threw that out there for some to think about before getting into the following.


I've had people on here tell me that they've told me things that even their closest friends don't know, and I'm sure I'm not the only one, people in general open up more to others on the internet. How much more so in private, while on the internet? To some, the definition of a friend is someone to be there when you need them. Well, if someone online can come to you instead of their offline friends because they trust you with their secrets, does that fall within that definition? I mean, you're the only person they can go to. When they're sad, you make them feel better. When they just want to have a chat that they can't afford to have with their offline friends, you're there for them. Hell, some even put out money to buy their friends premium. If a real life friend should be there for you, and he is, but is limited to how much he can help - then how less real is a friend on the net who can help you beyond the limits of any friend you have offline?

There's the argument, "You don't really know them." Again, a concept that can be philosophically debated.

1) You can go to them when you're sad about anything.

2) You can joke and chat to them about anything.

3) The above mentioned is very limited when it comes to offline friends.

Sure, you may not truly know them, but do your offline friends even truly know you?

Sometimes, a friend can simply be someone who is consistently there when you need them most. Anything beyond that, and we enter one's personal definition of a friend, or the majority's definition of a friend.

In a completely lawless and chaotic world, you'd be surprised who'd leave you. Sometimes, the friend you think you know may not even know themselves.

As I said in the beginning, the entire concept of a friend can be debated.

Nonetheless, I'd appreciate those who were there for me when I needed them. Offline or online.

Yami, you and your wallies, you deserve a special award for it, rather they should start 'Wall-E' of the day award, anyways you went to deep, and I kinda agree.

Talking about me, yes I do have many friends here on NB, with them I can have prolonged chat sessions, but I don't have that due to time constraints.
Here is the list of them(sorry if I forgot someone),
Zonta, Shouri, Gunjan, -Best-, Faye, Yami, Evertzar(I know you hate me, because I don't reply your VM's frequently), J AV, D.P., Klad(even if you return hardly, it's nice to have convo with you in a while), Naruko, Avinash, Sir Derp Obito, konoha people, chatroom corner guys, AGK guys, old LG guys, Debate tourney people, and ya you mods. Whew, enough people I think.
