What is the Worst, most pointless thread you've seen on the Escapist?

[AetherWolf]

*disregard double post*

 

[RaikuFA]

Pony threads, avatar threads, people making threads hating X person who contributes videos on this site.

 

[AetherWolf]

Threads that treat forums like a personal blog.
They have zero discussion value, and frankly we don't give a fuck.

 

[darksakul]

Which threads are the most worthless?
The ones I refuse to post in.

 

[Westaway]

I went in with like 30, but they were all named in 30 seconds.

Any thread about whats with all the *insert whatever threads* threads, Threads have titles and the first post gives you a good idea what it's gonna be about, if you don't like it click a different thread.

 

[Rewdalf]

Well then. Lets go down the list.
-Hater threads.
-Rage threads.
-Rant threads.
-VS threads.
-Complaint threads.
-"The last person you killed in a video game is ___________ and something to do with you, blah blah blah..." threads.
-Critisizm threads.
-"What should I do?" threads.
-"Which is better?" threads.
-"Fix my life because I'm depressed and am going to kill myself..." threads.
-"Whats the most ___________ game/show/thing you've seen?" threads.
-Sexuality threads.
-...
-Story threads with no discussion value...

Okay, so I don't like the MAJORITY of threads.
That, or they're always typed up poorly, which seems to be the case quite a bit.
I guess I'm hard to please.
And yes, I DO participate in the listed threads, and yes, I DO start one occasionally.

I once made a thread that asked if anybody wanted a cookie, complete with poll! Granted, it was my first thread ever in this place so i guess i kind of get a pass but all the same, twas rather pointless to say the least.

EternalNothingness'. Nothing against the dude, but... no, wait, I have a lot against him.

Ninja'd. I sort of feel bad for him just after every time I post a rather obnoxious reply to each of his threads, but then he makes a new one and that disappears. I'm unsure whether they're incredibly irritating or incredibly funny, but either way they're absolutely retarded.

 

[The Wykydtron]

Whenever a new game comes out, there are an absolute slew of near identical threads about [insert name here]

To be specific... Dragonage 2 threads... Just Dragonage 2 threads.

Oh god the horror...

 

[chaosyoshimage]

I was going to be facetious and state this thread, but this one seems pretty good. I guess I don't care much for the topic of eugenics which comes up every now and then likes it's the most fascinating thing of all time...

 

[Jazoni89]

I hate to pick out names but...

Any Topic made By EternalNothingness.

I've got nothing against him (he's probably a really swell guy and all), but he just doesn't make great threads, and he comes off as a bit of a troll with his strange and abnormal opinions about things.

 

[zombie goat fetish]

Threads that ask stupid questions like "why do people like *game name*" "why do people listen to *band name or genre". It's personal preference, it would make more sense to ask what is it that you like about game/band/genre

EternalNothingness'. Nothing against the dude, but... no, wait, I have a lot against him.

Agreed he makes some mad threads, especially the time when he kept trying to put the tank, dps healer and ask if it in ______ genre. He made soo many of those...

Perfect example "Should video games even tell stories, period?" had a poll on there... 1000 votes 950 voted yes XD

 

[Greni]

We're all like this. Each and every one of us, whether we admit it or not. We're navel-gazing monkeys all chirping and screeching to get a cookie in the form of extra replies or badges, and we like it that way.

Charming, isn't it?

For that comment you are my favorite person in the world for at least five minutes. You read that right, five whole minutes!
Just wanted you to know that.

Yesterday's one about skyrim disks holding no data. That was pointless.
