Tierstars Is becoming r/Brawlstars (for all the wrong reasons.)
Tldr: my main talking points
-"Discussion bait" posts get too much attention and are flooding the sub,same thing for "X upvotes and i Will do Y" -"Famous" Members gatekeep new members/old Members that are coming back because "You arent even the h in hotshot here" -High effort posts either get a lot of popularity,or no recognition at all -Quality of tierlists has dropped down a lot,originality isnt even a factor anymore
WARNING: My tldr ends here. My ACTUAL points May include swear words,calling out people with names and being ACTUALLY TRUE TO MYSELF. You have been warned.
Alright now that the low attention span people and the people that Will get hurt by what I am about to Say left,its time to start yapping.
DISCUSSION BAIT POSTS AND LOW EFFORT POSTS.
To whoever the fuck thinks that discussion bait Is actually really smart and original way to make a post.
GROW.UP.
And start doing actually original posts. The "50 upvotes and i face reveal" trend was started by Thor I think? And now its all over this fucking subreddit for no reason. Like yeah,Im Happy for you setting goals for yourself and being brave enough to do this but DAWG IDC ABOUT YOUR VOICE. If you REALLY want to voice reveal,do It without a interaction bait. Cmon. I dare you. Other interaction baits include Emu's elimination post. Because,dawg. Cmon. You are Just moving a trio around in a tierlist every day,screenshotting,and posting to reddit. Is that REALLY High effort? And if you enjoy low effort posts and Say "they arent that bad" YOU ARE A SHILL AND EXACTLY PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT DAY THIS ARE MAKING SUB QUALITY WORSE.
Meanwhile,people are working days,weeks,months even to deliver an actual good High effort post and.... 7 upvotes. Seems Fair!
FAMOUS MEMBERS
Im not attacking Thor,Moof,The True etc. These people were OG "famous people" and dont actually use their popularity to win argouments. Im talking about the new "famous people" like Electrogiantplayer. First off,being "famous" in a sub with ~150 online people Is NOT BEING FAMOUS. You are Just gaslighted into thinking you are famous when in reality you are NO ONE. You are so gaslighted that you start being assholes all around,gatekeeping other people from being known in this community. "But you did This too in the past" Mfs unlike you guys I change my opinions over time. And also,I dont care AT ALL about popularity. Being popular isnt obligatory to share your opinion.
TIERLIST QUALITY.
Im gonna go straight to the point,the only Tierlists I see nowdays are Guess the Tierlist (interaction bait because people are trying to Guess) or Smash or Pass (a Little bit Better but people legit dont care about ages and Just slap Janet in smash because "SHe iS 18 GuYS!!!!1!!!!" NO SHE IS NOT YOU DUMB FUCK. SHE IS 16. GET A LIFE AND STOP BEING A PEDOFILE. (And for the more heated people in the comments,I have a whole ass argoument on why She Is 16.)
Originality has completely disappeared from this sub. Back in July tierlists were,you know. ACTUALLY ORIGINAL? NOT KARMA FARMING? Now all i see Is tierlists that either follow like a Little doggy the popular opinion or tierlists made to ragebait and not to actually share an opinion.
SOLUTIONS TO THE PROBLEMS I TALKED ABOUT:
-Low effort posts: make a rule for offtopic weekend about low effort. -Famous people gatekeeping: Be actual human beings,but since some people might not reach the necessary threshold to be determinated as so,delete posts/comments that gatekeep newer people to the sub. -Quality of tierlists: Make a day where SoP Is allowed, a day where GtT Is allowed and EVERY OTHER DAY ISNT ALLOWED.
Thats It,thanks for Reading.
