>>114596616Friendly reminder that prohibitions against spoonfeeding isn't gatekeeping or elitism, it's just making sure that people are putting in the minimum effort and not being a waste of everyone else's time. Anyone too lazy to put in the minimum effort shouldn't be helped period.
Spoonfeeding usually drives the quality of a board down as well. At least 25% of the threads on /vr/ are just people asking to be spoonfed videogame recommendations since they can't be bothered to google up a top 10/100 game list for the console. Both /v/ and /vr/ suffer from threads of people asking what they can expect from a game before they even start playing it since they are too lazy to google up a review or letsplay of the game. And the threads repeat over and over, since other lazy cunts ask the about the same game over and over since they are too lazy to google or even check the archives for the old threads.
I don't mind helping people, but the exact moment I notice the person I'm trying to help isn't putting in even basic effort, I lose all desire to help that person. People wanting to be spoonfed deserve nothing but scorn and contempt.
