I was a bad boy

[chipman]

Got the notice in the mail today -

Do you think I was the first to get banned by the new owners? Will I get a certificate?

Dunno, but I'm more interested to know why you got banned

"Too many click bait titles" was the reason. Strange, 'cos the last thread I sent was to feedback. I couldn't sign in after they changed the login. Had to create a new account.
Sent post to feedback but it never saw daylight.
Not being an English Lit major, I have always had troubles with titles.
edit - I just checked, I can still get in with my new acct. Somebody sleeping?

That's a shame. Why did you keep posting clickbait titles after they warned you or temp banned you?

That's a shame. Why did you keep posting clickbait titles after they warned you or temp banned you?

Three reasons -
a) did not get warning.
b) did not get temp ban.
c) did not know I was doing something wrong.

After that all I have to say to the new owners is "GFY".

As long as we're on this subject - has any one else noticed that website is getting slower than molasses at times?

And you don’t think that “I was a bad boy” isn’t a clickbait title?

 

[chipman]

I didn't think a business that depends on clicks for income would have an issue with clickbait titles.
There's a current thread there right now that's titled "Do you get the."
You might see how I was confused.
I always thought clickbait was to try to sell you something you didn't want. My thread was to feedback, complaining about the new login.

I just think it's a little odd that after getting banned from a photography forum for using too many clickbait titles you complain about it on another photography forum using a clickbait title.

Too many years of working on commission. If you want people to do something you have to hook them. For that you use bait.
