Yeah, I'm sorry (not sorry) for necrobumping this, but I feel this should be put back out there for some people on this forum.

I'll take advantage of 97's bump to say that some people aren't even taking serious threads seriously anymore.

Do you expect everyone to be Einstein with Einstein level of intelligence?
Quote↩ videogamesm12 It appears that as time has gone by, people have taken the name of the "Spam and Drama" board a bit too seriously
When you see a trash bin, what do you do with it? You throw your trash in it. Plus what do you expect? It's called "Spam and Drama" for a reason, not "High Quality Posts"
Quote↩ videogamesm12 Frankly, I've gotten sick of these low-quality threads.
No one here is forcing you to read these threads. You have options to hide specific threads or hide discussion tags as a whole.
Quote↩ videogamesm12 Today I'm here to remind you that this forum is not your personal toilet.
Public places have toilets too. Like your nearby gas station or your local restaurant, regardless, toilets don't exist exclusively in your house. Like you can compare the "Spam and Drama" board with the public bathroom.
tl;dr you can't force people to produce gold all the time. The solution to this is just to ignore these posts, most of the posts in Spam and Drama are attention grabs and if you don't reply then people are less likely to produce this stuff in the future.

↩ characterslimits The solution isn't simply just to ignore the posts. This spam & drama issue is relatively new because we had falling threads on Proboards. Many REAL solutions that do not involve just ignoring the posts have been presented but never implemented. That is partly due to this shitty forum software. Most of the shitposting that is done in S&D can be taken elsewhere. A joke here and there is fine, but not when all of the important threads are being pushed down because there are too many S&D threads.

↩ characterslimits That is one of the solutions that was was suggested but not implemented. I am aware of the things that we COULD do, but simply ignoring the posts is not a very good option. There are too many being posted every day for them to be ignored. It is an issue that needs to be addressed not ignored.

This thread was created before the plugin that allowed you to hide these threads was added to the forum.

↩ characterslimits Wasn't aware I could do that. Thanks.

↩ characterslimits Do you think that there should be no threshold whatsoever for a thread to exist in Spam and Drama?

Would just like to highlight that a lot of the recent threads people are having an issue with aren't put in spam and drama intentionally to try and "add" to the shitpost or low effort joke.

Doesn't mean you have to constantly create more trash to throw into the bin... its getting pretty absurd with how many unfunny posts people make for god knows what reasons

Just ignore the spam and drama tag 🤷🏽♂️
