Greetings. Fall season is intense (traffic up 30-40% day-to-day at the moment) and has started off with a bang: Goblin Slayer threads keep bringing in off-topic stuff like crazy, and many threads pretty much start off as some kind of bait directly from the OP. I've seen a huge surge of related shitposting coming in with that tide and someone's got to say something. This easily requires special focus from us for the time being, at least until it calms down, which should be within a month depending on the pace of the adaptation.

At least IMO, beyond just going post-by-post within threads, some of these particularly off-topic-leaning GS threads are expendable. There's a huge surplus of threads for this show as it is + we could encourage people to try actually talking about it instead of using it as some allegory/soapbox, of which it factually was -never- modeled as such originally. Ongoing melodrama happening on other websites/forums (of which there is much related to this show) also does not comprise anime discussion and shouldn't be the focus of threads about it.
