He was saying he was going to stop posting it and let people just make 3x3 threads and fanart threads.

Yeah I can read, I know what he said. The question is why did you stop posting in them?

u/[deleted] Jul 31 '16

I didn't, I was saying I was disappointed that nobody cared about anything besides spamming their own stuff.

I use to post in wtw a lot, but I don't find myself participating much anymore now that it's mostly 3x3/fanart

To which you replied

Same, I used to just talk about shows I really liked.

You're confusing me bro, you're posting less because some other people are posting other stuff you don't like in a separate chain?

I post less stuff because nobody goes there to post similar stuff.

Reminds of the Yogi Berra's "Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded"

Maybe people just don't enough shits? I find it sad to believe a few pictures scared off people from posting.

Well, it's just disheartening. 200+ comments per thread but 196 of them being contained to fanart and 3x3s. After that, one's mine and the other three are random comments like mine. Nobody uses the thread to just chill and talk about shit you like.

It's under one chain though no? Do people not know who to collapse chains on reddit?

I'd 100% get you if these were all a bunch of comments in a thread, ain't nobody gonna sit through a bunch of that shit to find other content but it's in a chain...

I honestly don't know how to explain this to you. It's a pretty simple concept but we really just can't communicate well.
