Anyone else feel like they're posts are inferior to those of others? Personally, I feel superior to around 97% of people here, but I am just so badly beaten by the rest that I'm considering just lurking and not posting at all anymore...

How do you deal with being outperformed and outshined to such an extent that you realize that you don't even have a way to begin to counter that?

It's like being a guitarist in your local town and better player than everyone, but sometimes Buckethead is lurking in the bush and starts playing and you realize that you are now even in the same dimension.. do you just remain silent so as to allow air to breathe or what do you do? Gaddam. Should I just ditch playing even though I'm better than pretty much everyone in my village? It doesn't compare to buckethead And I don't even have the imagination to begin to think of a way that it could.

Imageboard inferiority I guess you could call it. It doesn't make me want to kill myself, but it's making me consider just straight up lurking only. God damn some of those fucking niggers are just no match, fuck.

Maybe I'm alone in this. If you can't relate - consider yourself lucky. If you do relate and don't post nothing ever... Hi, I forgot you even exist.

I don't really look at it like that. I mean, the first thing is... Why are you here on this imageboard and specifically a random board? Is it to challenge yourself to debate or to prove your intelligence to other people? If so, ask yourself why. Maybe it's good practice that you think you need. Maybe that's your inner you nudging you to pursue something more complex in your life. I just know that people on the internet come from all walks of life and they often can be super intelligent or just really well versed and educated on a few topics and that is what they often stick to. Don't we all do that to some extent? Stick to the stuff we know because well, nobody knows everything. Some people just generally know more about a greater variety of subjects than the rest. Some are happy just focusing on a niche and they can be successful there as well! As it translates to anonymous imageboards, we are all different. We often are more open about our true selfs or personas we create. Some of us want it to be a literal translation of what we experience in real life. Some of us just want to have fun and focus on things we enjoy. In any case, if you really have a passion for something there will always be someone somewhere who is as good or better than you at it. So don't fret at this stuff, I come here for fun and I have some good knowledge about a variety of subjects but I am rarely able to share them here anymore. There are many threads and topics I can't proficiently and don't want to be a part of. So that's what I do. So don't let it get you down. Maybe this is your call to action to get to know more about said topic! Lurk moar is always a good standby because you can learn alot by reading and doing critical analysis. Remember, this is just free time for us to experiment in our lives and 7chan and those who maintain it have given us a great forum where we can do this in a unique way. Don't let it bring you down or let it get to you too much ok? You are a friendly person and we all have something to contribute large or small! ( ´・・)ノ(._.`)

I don't think it's a specific topic, they just completely decimate me pretty much in every dimension. I mean I do good stuff sometimes, but..

Maybe I'm being harsh on myself. Truly thought, we are not all comparable. Some are genius level. And just mogs you in every way. And then run circles around you. It's tough. Not because I'm down, but because I realize how much further I need to go/be to actually have something to post that is worth posting.

And I'm not saying that what I'm doing is absolutely worthless, but imagine it like this - You gave a school of children some clay and they made some figurines and then Michelangelo came and chiseled David.. sometimes you'd rather these kids not even posted anything and this be just a collection of that kind of quality of work. IDK. I don't want to be the one who's bringing down the overall quality of the board or the chan. If I'm the one who says that they love it which I do. I do love this place. So, should I post still even though I know I lack that kind of talent? I'm better than most, but I just... Feel inferior, damn..

It's like when bezos said Yosanta made him realize he shouldn't be a theoretical physicist. Some of the people here make me feel like I shouldn't post on anonymous imageboards. They do it so much more well...

We are not the same

At the end of the day we are writers + image/gif selectors/creators here. Believing anything else is mostly you deluding yourself to make yourself feel better about what you are outputting.

There is an audience and there is an outputter. Let's not do any unneeded additional mental gymnastics. And not all content is created equal. At the end of the day this is what it is and you justifying it by, oh but I'm a good person, or oh but I'm knowledgeable in this or that subject - hardly changes the situation. If your content is no match for that of others..

That's what I'm saying, wouldn't it make sense to just lurk and observe and learn instead of diluting something potentially truly great? Even if you're great and better than pretty much your entire village and yes the fools are still making noise, but you having the wisdom, wouldn't it make sense that at least you remove at least a little bit of noise from the mix so that the signal can shine? I'm not saying don't write if that's your passion and you enjoy it, but you know, just don't post it.
