It really depends on what the topic's about. I've seen some topics that are mostly met with people being supportive of the TC.

Even funnier is some of those topics are people using alts to post a provocatively hyperbolic OP so they can tear it down in righteous fury.

They are so starved for social affirmation that they create they're own strawmen to argue with for clout...

yes GOD YES LMAO

When one of those posters wants to stand on a soapbox, but there's a lack of SPECIFIC offensive content they feel like debating at the moment....they just hop on an anonymous alt and post exactly the type of offensive rage bait they're in the mood for, switch to their other account and virtue bomb the alt here to incite angry onlookers to rally against the alt. This sometimes rewards the main account of the inciter with affirmation from other users. It's a cycle that feeds itself, especially on sites that don't limit or vet anonymous alt creation.

One of those most common clues is when one account posts rage bait in the OP, but never posts in the topic again. It's because that account is just the strawman getting set up for another unrelated account to tear it apart. They're just too lazy to bounce between accounts. Some baiters don't make that mistake, but it's funny how often others do.

Impatient people hungry for attention and praise don't always wait for a dragon to slay. Sometimes they build their own. Hell there's been old cartoons poking fun at that trope for decades...and this is the phenomena it's based on.

Hot takes are meant to rile people up though. That's kind of the point.

Rather than letting their emotions get the better of them, I think a better thing to do would be to calm down and stop projecting. Depending on the topic, there could be some interesting discussions to be had if people would actually give them the time of day.

Everyone turning on the TC is a CE staple. Even better when the TC is expecting full support. That's how you get your wings.

Agree with this. My post above implies that the people making the hot takes are also willing to debate them. But when I see someone make a topic and not come back, then I know they aren't being sincere.

I feel like those running this website no longer want to be bothered with it and want to shut it down.

The way mods mod you for the dumbest shit, and this place already has very little traffic, its like their mission is to get posters to stop coming here.

Then you have these bot-like posters making some of dumbest poll topics.

I've often heard others say that this website is on its last but only now I can see it for myself.

I've been here since 2005 and while there has been a statistical decrease in the amount of users, the site isn't dead.

Do you just mean the quality of it is lower?
