Bulletin Abuse

If there's one thing that is absolutely, positively needed on CherryTAP, it is a support group to wean people off of the whiny, moronic, and asinine postings I've seen come up lately. Bulletin topics, unfortunately, have degenerated into an outlet for self-pity, hoaxes, and downright idiocy. I can always expect to see the following when I log in:
  • Repost this for a soldier who got his arms and legs blown off and fed to him in Kablamistan.
  • I have 96,000 friends online and only 410 of you said "hi" to me.
  • I'm in a contest! Vote for my naked boobs.
  • This person's really cool! SPAM HIM with user comments until his speakers blow out.
  • You never repost anything I put up!
  • This user's a fake (or too young, or too pretty, etc.)! Let's grab our torches and run her out of the village!
  • Repost this to find out who on your list will have sex with you. If you don't, your wee-wee will shrivel up and drop off.
  • Repost this to cure cancer in this missing kid whose arms and legs were blown off in Kablamistan. The first 96,000 entries will receive one NSFW picture of my naked boobs (which are fake, by the way).
And so on, and so forth. Admittedly, there was one bulletin the original poster actually sent me a shout to see if I'd followed up on it. Unfortunately, she was pimping some other girl out for points on that bulletin. I told her that it seemed like an awkward request from someone who rarely (actually, never) talks to me -- she didn't know me, but was comfortable enough to ask me to rate a friend of hers. She countered by telling me to read her blog and then I'd "know about her." We haven't conversed since then. I rarely read bulletins anymore. There's nothing informative in there. It's just an excuse to send the equivalent of chain letters to everyone on your list without actually taking up inbox space. You want my attention? Post/repost something that isn't a hoax or a pimp train or a witch hunt once in a while.
