>At this point I'd face the truth that these threads are a pale ghost of /crit/ threads and promptly delete this one. The name of this general itself attracts non-writers wannabes too strongly. I think the idea is this wasn't supposed to be /crit/ in the first place. Some OP maker(s) had the genius idea to start incorporating /crit/ into the OP title—but I'll be frank, even from the very first thread we had random dumps of these poems or pulps shorts that I thought people were just posting just because—it didn't occur to me that they were seeking a critique. For that matter, we were just informally /crit/-lite. Putting crit in the title for better or for worst made it more formalized.

I have never been to /crit/ at all, so I figure that's common practice there. It wasn't until a few threads ago that OP told people doing those to mention they would like critique in some form or another. But all it really does is just invite more bad apples with fried dopamines.

But, I'm not personally bothered by them. If people want to post them that's fine. Because the other kind of posts are narcissistic with dopamines fried beyond recognition, and schizos off their meds whining about people not self or tradpubbing but never have the gall to share any work themselves.
