It's getting out of hand. Folks trying to claim bait thread of the day with extreme over the top topics and responses. You can usually find the same usual culprits in Gen-OT making the same bait threads(tipping, pit bulls, race-bait, circumcision, guns etc) not so much to start a discussion but to rather stir up people. The topics have been beat to death and they never turn into discussion but rather shit slinging from opposing sides. It's really making GenOT a horrible experience.
I'm not asking to stop all the threads like this, but better moderation and closing of obvious bait threads.
On the topic of shitposting: people responding to threads with no intention of contribution but rather just trying to show how edgy they can be. Sure we've always had those people, but now it seems these threads are more and more trying to be like Reddit and the snarkiest comment gets the most attention.
I know mods can't be everywhere, I know it can't all be fixed, but can we do something to keep the crap to a minimum? can we add shitposting to the list of reportable items? Please?
