because they're pointless and there's no reason for them

I didn't want RSTF, but because you baited me into clicking on your thread instead of putting it in the title, I suddenly feel like trading for it!1

^

They just waste your time lol because they don't make you want an item anymore than you would do if someone had included the item in their title

there's a lot of trends in roblox that are pointless and hold no value what-so-ever

for instance:
owners lists
top posters lists
"guess that lmader"

yet people love them? there's literally NO point to them.

and they only waste 10 seconds max out of your time... and I'm pretty sure I would still want the item no matter if there's clickbait on it or not.. lol

owners lists - Helps people know who to send trades to
top posters lists - Just for fun (is clickbait fun?)
"guess that lmader - ^

"and I'm pretty sure I would still want the item no matter if there's clickbait on it or not.. lol"

Exactly. So why not just put the items you're trading in the title, since if people want the item they will click on it regardless, and maybe you won't be wasting people's time

Like, I get that it doesn't waste a lot of time but when 50% of the threads you click on are clickbait it gets a bit annoying

clickbaiters like to draw attention to their thread. what im seeing people do is get reaalllllly angry becase they fell for a clickbait title.

sure, they could put their original intent in the title, but unless the item is a big item (RSTF, BV, RS, something every richer lmader is looking for), they wont get trades on it.

ill give an example: ive posted soooo many non-clickbait threads, kept them alive, and only got around 2 trades out of the whole thing

after one clickbait thread, i get around 10 trades within 5 minutes. not only that, the trades are actually good...

im not going to lie, i do get annoyed by clickbait, but not to the point where i go ranting about the person who clickbaited. i just exit the thread and move on.


the only kind of baiters that really make me angry are flame baiters.

"they are waste of time"

so is playing roblox

yet we still do it?

i dont get annoyed by clickbait titles because they are a waste of time.

i usually get annoyed by them because i fall for some of them.
