So for my sociology project, I'm going to talk about what defines the culture of internet forums, how this compares to mainstream (U.S.) culture, and how internet culture has crossed over into the real world.
If you guys don't mind, I'd like to hear what you guys think defines the culture of ATOT. Culture is defined as "acquired, learned, or shared attitudes, beliefs, ideals, and behaviors that are significant to a particular group of people"
example: when we see new posters, "WWYBYWB?" is a guaranteed response. that is an example of ATOT culture. also, spider, whistleblower, demanding pics, demanding cliffs, etc.
For the internet culture influences, I'm mostly going to talk about how 4chan/SA stuff creeps over here and even into real life (oprah and over 9000, rick rolling, moot as time's most important person)
Again, this is for my sociology project, and I wanted to get information firsthand from ATOTers as a pseudo "interview". I am also going to include my own perspectives on what I see as the culture of ATOT, how it has affected me, etc. I am not going to just copy and paste people's responses and claim them as my own.
Cliffs:
fenixgoon wants to define ATOT culture for his sociology project
please answer what *you* think ATOT culture is.
......
profit?
