If I'm allowed to add in my .02 cents, I think a lot of what started this trend (by which I mean things like targ posts outside of crap shack, inentional poor grammar, and one-liner catch phrases like "gay imo") can be pointed at the moderators, staff, and popular/respected members. A lot of us posted our fair share of such posts in the past years (like that one thread in PP&A that was linked toin the Command and Control forums some time ago, featuring a huge array of one-liners by people such as rami and QM), and because it was acceptable for us to do it back then, it now became an acceptable - even cool - behavior for people to post things like "gay imo" and "This." After seeing mods do it, people began thinking things like "Steel doesthis so it must be okay for me to do it" or "Diggity does this so it must be cool," and it catches on in the community.While it's possible to point fingers at members who do such things now and say stop, I think the best way to go about this is simply for the mods and admins to set a different example and try to reinforce that things like "gay imo" is not really cool and that opinions should be more thought out (mainly by not doing this themselves). That way, members will gradually stop posting in such methods, and the only problem you would be left with is one-line opinions rather than a massive array of things.
