You can read the first post of the thread with the arrow without opening the thread itself. Nevertheless, I totally agree

ouch.

OP asks for no more clickbait titles, in a topic that he made - using a clickbait title.

Kekeke.

The question is:

Are you annoyed with the creators of such threads, or are you annoyed with yourself for clicking on them?

The creators. I'm clicking on them because the thread might be something very interesting and useful, but that they take away my ability to decide if it's a topic I'm interested in or not is just a sh*tty thing to do.

I Agree it is very hard wasting 10 seconds of my life on a click bate thread. its even worse when I spend another 2 min commenting in that thread.

I just don't click on the 'clickbait' topics. I used to, but it quickly became apparent that the ramblings of those who are unwilling or unable to even name their thread in a remotely informative manner were rarely worth actually clicking on. So now I don't. Problem solved.

I tried to complain about how vague the thread titles were in the Squad List forum, but I was called an elitist.

I just don't care anymore. Wallow in your sh*tty forum that no one except people with <200 posts look in. I'll just post my squad list ideas in the main forum and get more than 3 responses.
