Clickbait Topics Annoy The Hell Out Of Me

[ItachiZaku]

I hate the ones that suggest a bunch of hot chick pics based on some theme, and then you have only 1 per page and the click pic isn't among them and was clearly the hottest of the batch.

What irks me are the bait threads that, well, Genn starts all the time. Well, Genn and Jayderp.

Yeah, I went there

As for the facebook-type buzzfeed OMG U WILL NOT BELEIVE UR EYEZ stuff, it doesn't annoy me, it just makes me think less of the person who shared it.

Nice thing is, you can see who created the thread so you know not to bother with them.

He starts discussions most times though.

99% of his threads are a copy and paste with 0 input of his own.

If There Was a Way to Filter Them Out Of My Life Completely, I Would Use It!
OMG, The Next Reaction Will Make You Bang Your Head Against A Wall!

Easiest way is to ignore Jaylock and learn from titles. Most clickbait are pretty obvious.

How? I only see thread titles, replies, and views.

I just got clickbaited by a website misrepresenting a scientific study. I suck at avoiding these things.

It shows dishonesty so i skip those.

I know they never turn out like the title says, but for some reason I am forced to click them. I'm a failure I know. :c

It's stupid when people drop nothingness into a new thread and type "/discuss". If they're so bored with their own topic that they don't discuss it, why should anyone else? It should be an infraction.

I think when people do that they are more interested in what other people have to say first.

Then they should make that clear.

"Traffic light is red. /Discuss" is stupidity.

Guess I was wrong about that. Thought for sure this forum had a "created by" area.

Dextersmith is taking things too seriously.
