My teenage internetting is quite well buried thankfully. One ancient forum that no longer exists even in archived form, a follow-up abandonned forum to that one where I managed to contact the admin a couple of years back and he agreed that it was best to delete the whole thing, password lock the web address, and burn and salt the earth
.
I was also entirely anonymous on both with a username I haven't used since.
I honestly do have sympathy for people in these situations... I was never racist etc, but I was a
very, very unhappy, angry and confused teenager and (much like now I guess, of course much more refined
) I didn't easily take **** from people... on a forum full of other unhappy, angry teenagers... so honestly some of the things I said to people at age 14 or 15 were absolutely god awful
.
Frankly I call bull**** on most people who claim they're happy with everything they said at 15. Isn't that sort of the point of the teenage years? To make horrendous errors and learn how to actually be a decent adult?
