>>3665531A textpost is a textpost - it restricts the diversity of the board as it adds a post with no content to save. There is no difference between what is written as it bumps the thread while contributing nothing. As much as /a/ is a discussion board, /c/ is to images. It's always awesome talking with anons about these cute images but we need cute images to discuss - it takes two seconds and little to no effort to attach an image and give back to /c/.
No need to lash out, I'm only saying that /c/ is a board focused on images. Bumping a thread without an image is selfish as it keeps the thread alive for another day despite no content being contributed while other threads die normally.
