[Meta] Can we talk for a moment about the recent influx of screenshots flooding the subreddit?

I'm okay with it personally, though I understand if others feel differently. There have indeed been more than usual lately, but it hasn't reached a breaking point for me, and relegating ALL screenshots to a weekly sticky might be too drastic a measure—especially since people would have to link them, as you can't embed media in comments.

If that were to happen, this reddit would almost solely consist of the following:

• "New and confused about what to buy"
• "Best way to make money?"
• "Best race for [Insert Class]?
• "Best way to grind xp?"
• "Can't log in"
• "Need help tanking/healing"
• "Which class is best?"
• "Need help with [Insert Build]"
• "We need to add MONKS"
• "To the DPS who queued as a fake tank last night..."

I'm not saying that many of these topics aren't valid, or welcome—all I'm saying is that most conversations that come through each day fall into one of these recycled categories, and I welcome the added diversity screenshots and memes bring.

I think they spice up the subreddit personally. Adds something to look at every now and then.

I like them and I like taking them, that said, I made an Instagram account so I can share and enjoy them to my hearts content without annoying others :)

The only time I get annoyed is when its a screenshot to advertise some filter. In the comments its always "oh, did you use a mod? What was it called?" and then the answer.

Easier to not look than try and curb it for your own taste.

The ever infinite conundrum for reddit and other forums - who's preference trumps who's?

Simple answer. Worry about only that which you can control.

Bold move, last time I spoke about the sheer amount of screenshots being posted I got downvoted into oblivion.

It has gotten that bad there was a guy the other day who tried bullshitting the sub (he nearly did) with a "screenshot" that just so happened to be a loading screen.

The worst type of screenshots are "look at my character", when the OPs character looks like literal shit or a reposted outfit. Not to mention the obiglatory "Vvardenfell (which I agree)/Summerset is beautifal" posts. It does get tiresome and I understand 100% where you are coming from.

The housing screenshots I don't mind but that "My journey of ESO photography continues" style of content just needs to fuck off, no one cares if you can angle a camera and press your print screen button.

My thoughts are I am 100% with you.

Oh and whilst we're on the subject of flooded posts, no one gives a flying fuck if you have beaten vMA at a ridiculously high CP.

Thanks for listening.

Why don't you let the mods worry about that

This sub's just a circle-jerk safespace for fanboi's and shills, wouldn't take it too seriously.
