>>20438448The worst kinds of people from other boards are coming here because they don't stand out enough on the board they came from. This is why generals have become popular.
A slow board discourages attention whoring, but /bant/ is becoming fast.
Bant always had many attention whores, but at least you knew who they were. You could laugh at them. Now they may as well be spambots.
If you used questions & answers just before it got shut down, you'd notice a similar pattern. If it were still up, you'd notice a bunch of shitty generals all over it. I believe the mods knew it would happen and shut it down for that reason contrary to popular belief.
