>you're the only one who actually decided to be the bigger man and explain why generals are apparently bad
Because people are bored of the same points being made. Generalfags don't imagine the negative impact it has on the experience is a negative. Threadfags don't mind some redundancy in the catalog because if one thread turns to shitflinging you can start another one and hope it swims rather than sinks.
>generals can legitimately be good for /tg/.
Tech support is not a good example of something that benefits a discussion board. If I have a question or a joke, should I pose it to a single thread or an entire board?
>I just prefer for my favorite board to be more organized and tidy.
A discussion board isn't your underwear drawer. It's a stream of consciousness. It's a conversation. This is just a difference of preference. Now the shitposts and questions are identical single posts in a thread that is rapidly approaching the bump limit. Great job. You made them LESS visible.
>They probably weren't worth asking in the first place
You aren't the arbiter of quality. You're one voice in a community and it's the people's right to decide what lives or dies. Your contribution is only as important as anyone else's, be it apathy or passion. But it's better to cast a wide net.
>Wanting a board to be more organized and not clogged with pointless slide threads does not make one a wanter of Reddit's toxic positivity here.
You misunderstand why I don't like Reddit. Go to Reddit and you will see a million self contained groups. They do not interact. They pad the walls of the echo chamber and sit in silence with nothing disturbing the placid emptiness. Derailments and hijacking are part of the fun here, you can't do that shit anywhere else. Threads flow like a conversation. It starts somewhere but there's no telling where it can end up. Back when this board was worth a damn it was accepted that /tg/ did not become the best board by rigidly staying on topic.
