Default VBOT is starting to get stale
Lately, all I see are pointless post-count celebrations, inane polls about topics NOBODY cares anything about, vapid parrotty threads (when's the last time anyone actually put any thought into creating one of them?), Joecooool-bashing fests, people hitting the crap out of the Thanks button, "babes" pics and "babes" .gifs, ubiquitous Obamacare rants (it's settled law, people... get over it), gun and 2nd amendment threads (who GAF how you conceal-carry your piece), name-that-tune absurdities, football game play-by-play commentary chat rooms, etc. etc. etc.

Sea Six is responsible for the strategic placement of this thread of which is neither creative, effective, expert nor innovative, but yet shows his patient analytically driven motives to destroy the organizational harmony of VBOT.

VBOTs local "expert" patient is responsible for this lack of creatively organized and unanalytical strategy to ineffectively drive against innovation.
