Default What's your "Top 5 Worst Curated Threads" thread

It appears some Chevy Cobalt bafoons were sent to belittle the intellignece of our community and post a bunch of crap, that more times than not, contributes zero benefit to the site. Therefore, lets bring out our Top 5's guys. Show me a list of your worst five curated content threads. Expose it for what it is...crap!

(I now realize I should have posted #5 first and counted down to #1. Oh well. Regardless, here's my top 5 worst curated threads)

1. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-ta...s2000-1171559/
^^^It's true, someone was paid to create a thread using the words Easter Egg Colors and S2000 in the same sentence.

2. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/car-talk...s2000-1171824/
^^^Give me a fkin break!

3. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-ra...s2000-1172785/
^^^If we're going to discuss tracks and attach images to them, is asking for the picture to match the track too much? On top of that, could we at least get our information correct?

4. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-ta...s2000-1172761/
^^^Sweet! Stance rules!

5. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-ta...rious-1170078/
^^^Because everyone wants to know more about the Fast & Furious super hero saga.

You would be incorrect. Internet Brands owns the site and control the curated content. The Admins, along with all of the Moderator staff (including CO's) are volunteers and we have zero control over the curated threads/posts.

No. I just don't find this any better than any of the curated drivel.

BTW, it is spelled curator.

There in lies the problem with text. That wasn't meant to be taken in the literal sense. However, I had no idea that the admin didn't own the site. In the past I've been a Mod for a car enthusiast site, but the Admin owned the exclusive rights to it. I suppose your insight helps to ease the pain of seeing these...knowing that the Admin of this site doesn't control and/or offer any assistance to this stuff. Seeing the Curators labeled as Admin threw me off, I suppose. So much for looking for an end to them.



Sweet spell check Cody.

^^^want me to spell check when I'm busy at work? Lol

Learning perhaps not everyone finds the curated content as annoying as I. When I was bored earlier, I thought this could have been entertaining. Turns out it's not lol

I found it entertaining. Certainly more so than the drivel that it pokes fun at...
