Top Ten Problems with TheTopTens' Community in 2018

This site is a hilarious mess right now. Literally everywhere on the site is getting drained and infected by low quality content, irrational users and rustled crybabies. Thanks, Gen-18.
The Top Ten
1 Easily "Rustled" Users

The issue I have with this list is that it's worded in such a way that assumes it's just this website that's becoming like this. People are becoming like this on basically every site these days

I mean, isn't this always the case on any community. Someone will always be upset by something

Only entitled people who can't fend for themselves care about rustling

Come on. It's 2018 and people all still feeding obvious trolls with extremely rustled replies. There have been at least three major trolls this year, none of which can troll very good, who have rustled the site, mainly newer users. These users are laughable and there's too many of them. Learn how to act accordingly online.

2 More Users Deleting Their Accounts

Yep this is a big problem why suddenly I feel like I'm watching the Infinity War movie on this site alone in 2018 why is it on the rise stop please!

Floral, lovefrombadlands, MarioNinja101, GreyRose, mila34, at least LFBL came back. A note to Gen-19 users. Only make an account if you truly want to stay and attempt to be the best user you can be.

Another one bites the dust!

They just won't stop.

3 Mob Mentality/Bandwagoning

The worst group that does this are the rustlers, they jump on a hate bandwagon on many undeserving users and a like bandwagon on things no

That's not really me. Almost everyone liked What About Us and Praying, two songs I don't like.

Bandwagoning is been in the site for a while.

I'm trying to stop doing this

4 Stat Padding is Still as Large as Ever

List ideas are hard, I get it. But no one wants to read a list about top 10 metal musicians born in November who find mint chocolate chip ice cream overrated. There is one very big offender on this site who we are all aware of and despite his beliefs, is very uncreative. Admin kinda tried to stop this but it really didn't work.

I actually agree with this, not calling anyone out in particular but do you really think that your list about things beginning with a certain letter will be a very memorable list?

This can be renamed 'Overexploitation of the television, music and movies category' Literally 90% of all lists are in those 3 categories. Like I get it, but you can't keep on exploiting the Music category. There are 14 others. Make lists in the 'world' category or the 'miscellaneous' category or something else. Still, content done with the intention of stat padding is what makes it to the front page. This is one of the biggest problems on here and has caused the site to become dull.

Letter lists are the worst!

5 Poor Trolls Becoming Way Too Prominent

I think we all know who we're talking about.Not going to say the specific user but this user is a communist who thinks Stalin(A mass murderer) is better than Trump(An idiotic president).-LitSavage

Like me

(jk not anymore after I got my second troll warning already lol)

Like I mentioned, there have already been a minimum of three trolls who have drastically rustled and offended the whole site, requiring minimal effort to do so. These trolls are not funny and weak compared to legendary trolls of the past. This is all your fault for giving them attention.

Because people keep feeding them

6 Good Users Retiring

@the person that asked for me to come back, sorry I can't. I am not allowed to have an account anymore.

That is true, all of my old friends barely come on here or have retired.

Got you feeling me, whether willing or un-willingly.

That and some Gen 18 users just give up easily.

7 People Who Cannot Respect Opinions

I agree. I am sick of this site. When I said I was a communist, every one overreacted. I wouldn't have even started trolling if everyone didn't overreact so much over me stating my opinion, which is why I will never go on this site again, goodbye users I am friends with but I just can't take this. - Lucretia

I don't think it's a big problem. I think that if you don't say, "I respect opinions, but" at the start of every DAMN post like I do, then it could come across as selfish.

Rarely has happened to me in the last 4 or 5 months I have been on the site.

Yeah, say that you like Gen-18 and you'll appearently be a "low-intellect" being. It's ridicoulus

8 Lack of Humour

Yep, another department where giving me backup has been unsuccessful. Jokes on the site now are just canc and a half. Combining the president of the united states and a strange rapper together for a profile pic isn't funny, it's just really virginous.

I am not a humourous person, but I can take an offensive joke and I really wished there were more users who actually had a sense of humour, instead of being mature and nice and sensible users all the time.

I think there's a lot of pretentiousness on this site now, that wasn't there when I joined, nearly four years ago... But this site isn't the only one suffering from it.

I miss when lists about random/dumb things on the internet were made

9 Dimash Kudaibergen Spam Voting

This is annoying!

10 Lack of Variety

Lack of Variety is, in my opinion one of the biggest issues on this site right now. Not all lists have to be Television, Music or Movies category. Not all posts have to be game or T.V. show/anime reviews. Not saying there's anything wrong with those, but you don't wanna see spoiler reviews of some 25 shows that you've never seen on the HQ posts page

Everyone is the same. They hate Justin Bieber and treat him like the spawn of satan, they are a metal-head, they are a weeaboo or a memester! We really need more unique users with a variety of interests and actually be themselves.

Regular bandwagoning Thetoptens user starter pack
-Is a Nintendo fan
-Treats Justin Bieber like if he is worse than Hitler, Stalin, Osama bin laden, etc
-Likes metal music
-Hates anything popular like fortnite

Every user is the same. All the featured posts are reviews by the same few people. All users are either a really big metalhead or a really big cartoon fan. I can't tell you people apart.

The Contenders
11 Lack of Good Users

Yeah, I said it. It's no secret this gen is currently lacking compared to generations past in terms of good users. I can name exactly 4 users from Gen 18 that I would consider above average.

What? The nicest users I have ever met are Gen 18, and they have much better content than older users in my opinion.

Let's face it. This year is so far better than 2017 regarding TheTopTens. I must say, compared to 2017, 2018 users are better.

I'm not sure how long ago eventer retired, but something's been missing ever since she did.

12 Boring

People being 2 boring is getting out of hand. u guys need 2 realize that surprising things always happen so STOP BEING BORING AND UNSURPRISED

Depends on what you consider to be "boring"

Lack of variety is to blame for this.

13 Lack of Leadership

I used to lead the community here, along with Matt. Admin becoming stricter has really limited both of us, and no one has stepped up to be a sufficient replacement. I shouldn't have to explain why this is a problem.

Honestly, the only leader here is Admin. But he should be a better leader, because he is doing a pretty terrible job. There needs to be a better leader in charge.

Agreed, Trying to make a community is like building a house from dust particles

Sorry but I think admin is doing just fine

14 Political Flame Wars

Yeah it's kind of been like, Obama and Hillary supporters vs. Trump supporters for a while

This site is more 80% lib agenda.

15 Trolls

Also troll feeders

16 No Respect for Newer Users

I kind of agree with this one...

Exactly! Show me some respect!

I don’t really look for respect or popularity. I just look to have fun on the site

Like, me.

17 Users Not Having Good Reputations

More like good users ruining their reps with bad obsessions and thinking they're always in the right even when they are being beaten easily in arguments. And I'm not he above so stop putting words in my mouth, and especially don't joke about pedophilia

Well they need to earn a good reputation

Their fault they ruined it. - PeeledBanana

I am underrated.

18 Users Creating False Life Stories in Posts
19 Getting Mad at People for Hating Kirito

Okay that's not my problem. I like Kirito but nope not my problem.

This needs to improve big time

Not a Weaboo, Not my problem

Important.

20 The Amount of Fortnite Hate

It's an amazing game with a bad community. Hate on other terrible games like Infinite Warfare of Fallout 76.

More like something in 2019.

21 Certain users getting largely ignored
