Why people do bait posts on these forums
Because its quick and easy and gets their point across. people who make real posts barely get as much as attention in the same time as a bait post does. People are so ADD now with the internet being such a big thing people dont want to read long posts they want something they can digest easily and get riled up about it.

In short, bait posts are better than normal posts

So if a post is short and doesn't match your opinion, it's bait?

did you read the post? where are you getting this message from? Im saying the community responds to bait faster than actual posts making it more incentivizing to make bait posts.

I know what bait is, but apparently your idea of bait is totally different.

Just because it's not your opinion, doesn't mean it's bait. Live with it.

this is bait i think we all can agree, I agree with the sentiment.
What about posts saying valve is doing good. (only saw 1) i dont consider them bait.
either youre baiting or you just that dull

and your post about valve trying to make exit money since the game is on its last legs is bait either that or its just a dumbass making a dumb statement. Which isnt very uncommon for you
