Discussion What Surprised You The Most About Incels.is after joining?

i was pleasantly surprised about how people treat me here instead of bullying me like im used to irl ppl here talk to me like im a human being

i feel kind of the opposite here. people are assholes here that will turn on you in a second, in some ways it's like IT. but i guess at this point im just used to it to the point i don't care
 
How kind the overall userbase is. The supposed "toxicity" of .is is greatly overblown.

Throughout my years on this site, the only times I received backlash from anyone was when I actually deserved it.
 
I'm sure we all had pre-conceived notions about this place before joining, assumptions we made about the culture here that after having become integrated with the
community and establishing a rapport with the many of the users you realised was simply not true.

This is probably more so true for people that were newer to the incelosphere upon joining and lacked any previous exposure. But I'd argue it's true for everyone to an extent.

What surprised me the most is that there are well-respected users of all ethnicities/nationalities here, even Indians and Israelis. :feelskek:

Nobody here seems to care if you're not white, they won't treat you any differently.
most empathetic place on the internet for men
 
To be honest i was nervous when joining as i didn't think i'd get along with anyone but i remember @ItsovERfucks and @NEB.feelsdevil being welcoming to me at the start :feelsokman:
 
You can also read posts before joining so nothing surprised me
Fakecel if you never created an account on here immediately without reading a single post.
 
How low iq most posters are
 
my first post someone bullied me and called me a "GrAYnigger dognutter". Can't even avoid it online jfl.

I was surprised at how extremely gracious, patient and generous the staff on here are. This turned out to be the one place on the internet where you don't have to stay clear of the mods in order to avoid getting warnings or bans for nonsense reasons. Likewise infiltrators and rule-breakers are dealt with swiftly, and I have never encountered any illegal or unpleasant content here so they clearly put in a lot of work. It is also extremely unusual to see moderators who actively participate in their community like they do, even Master himself chimes in on threads every now and then. I mean, I didn't even expect to have my application be approved so my expectations were already exceeded even there. Apologies to the mods for all the times I spoke ill of them before, I happen to be a very paranoid and mistrusting person.

In much the same way I was happy to confirm that the entirety of the userbase here isn't all alts of Master or similar, and that the site isn't a front for something else. Though for someone as conspiratorially minded as me I suppose that's still up for debate... Either way I think that this might just be the one place on the internet with the highest concentration of real individuals, and actually conscious and intelligent ones at that. This was especially surprising for all the other fellow GrAYs who joined this year, I would have the long established users here to be the only ones worth talking to. I was pretty surprised to see established users engage with GrAYs in general, because that shows that this isn't a social group with a logo like all other places on the internet, the main reason users post here still seems to be to discuss things. That is a very rare thing nowadays.

since when is this place "accepting" or "nice"?
maybe sewer troons are nice to each other. everything outside is warzone.
There are 'accepting' and 'nice' pockets of the userbase but they are the minority.
I would say that it is the majority, but I guess that what being "acceptive" and "nice" is considered to be is subjective. Even when two users might strongly disagree on something, or even troll and ragebait each other in one thread I find that they will most likely find themselves getting along again in another thread. I have not seen any users who consistently treat each other like enemies at all times, and that is another exceptional thing about the userbase on this forum. There is of course no brotherhood here, but I would say that there is camaraderie.
There are multiple 'cliques' or 'archetypes' (for lack of a better term) on .is and you learn fairly quickly what category each user falls into.
That is true to some degree, but each user is still unique. It is interesting to learn about all the different attitudes on here, I am still not finished with mapping out all the major ones for myself mentally.

Well...I've been lurking for a while before I signed up, so I had a general idea of the forum, but I was pleasantly suprised by how nice everyone was to me, even when I was a gray.

Same. Incels are more empathetic than foids and normies as we're aware of how horrible life is for those with subpar looks from first hand experience.

Soydditors were saying that everyone here has rape fantasies and post mostly about rape and when i used to lurk in 2023 i found out that only 1 percent here are posting edgy stuff and of course they are fakecels who get banned instantly
