I could swear that some of these threads have AI-generated titles (that is, if the AI agent was on the digital equivalent of magic mushrooms and/or LSD). They just don't make any sense!

I think that's a carry over from another cycling forum that became defunct and the members came over to cyclechat.

We've been doing it long before AI can along: maybe we inspired AI?

Basically it's a daily man shed, but you don't need to be a man (or a shed) to participate. You're welcome to join in, your welcome to ignore it. Complaining sounds a bit "man shouts at cloud" though.

Yes, it was I believe the BikeRadar forum which closed, and loads of them came over here, bringing that tradition with them.

Personally I would have thought it better etiquette for new members to fit in with the forum and post daily nonsense in the appropriate existing threads (Retirement, or even Tea - if that still exists) rather than starting a new thread EVERY DAY, with its associated strange titles and repetitive content. However it has been approved by admin, so that's that. I can't help thinking that admin might have reacted differently if one of the previous regulars started posting nonsensical thread titles on a daily basis. It doesn't do much to encourage long standing members to look in on the site, IMHO.. Mildly annoying rather than flounce inducing though.
