What positive (or negative) effects has MO had on your lives/character?

Just curious to see what changes people have seen in themselves after joining the community, for better or worse. For me, I'm really enjoying getting to talk to open minded people. There's always been a bad stigma surrounding anime to a lot of people who never give it a chance.

Nothing much, i'm already corrupted and aware of the toxic part of the anime community. So i came here to chill and look for good people to talk to and be friends with, simple as that.

In the short amount of time that I've been here, so far on the bad side my trust issues have gotten worse and I doubt people more but on the good side I'm actively trying to find more and more people to become friends with.

So far, i only pick people with anime profile pictures, people like that have a higher trust worthy chance and have a fun and unique personality.

@LaughingMan Isn't my profile pic one you can trust? I would say this site has made me feel more acceptable to myself about about my overall interest in Otaku culture, where as several years ago I felt like I wasn't allowed to embrace it. So I would say this site have a positive effect on me. Besides, I have met such wonderful people here!

I perferred people with anime profile pictures XD because they probably weren't normies(social websites I used to use have all kinds of people).
