Forum Memes

Every once in a while (actually, quite often), someone will make a topic. This topic may be funny, unique, problematic, who knows? The point is, to some people, it stands out from the crowd. They like this topic SO much that they make a duplicate topic with a similar concept.

For example, a topic named "How Much Money Do You Make?" might inspire someone to create a topic named "How Much Bread Do You Bake?", which in turn may inspire someone to create "How Many Leaves Do You Rake?"

This phenomenon is what I like to call "Forum Memes". Basically, memes within the forum community that occur in the forum of new topics. Most of these topics get locked as they aren't genuine threads and don't provide quality content for discussion.

This happens quite often on these forums.

For example:

(Yes, I am admittedly a part of the meme creation).
As you can see, the top two posts were genuine topics, and though the second one was slightly satirical (a joke based off the first topic), it was a real thread with room for discussion.
The bottom two, unfortunately, were not. They were, as you can see, locked.

My plea to you, forumers, is to put an end to these memes. At least the useless ones. If you see a topic that inspires you to create another bona fide topic with quality content, please do so, as it can actually be humorous. Making useless topics as a meme, however, is annoying and exhausting to run into.

Thanks. (please note the formal tone in this topic was all satirical as well, idc wtf you do just don't break the rules)

Woah. It's like you guys who use forum games are in a different world to me, and you're the reporter for international news.
