"Forum Post" is the worst addition to the game - rant

So, this will be a rant about the good old "Forum Post" introduced in 1.0

Forum Post genuinely makes me want to stop playing. I know very well that that sounds strange and stupid, fully aware, but i just HATE the rants about everything, and to have that "forced" upon me actively makes the game worse. When reading reddit I already hated reading every post complaining about the smallest thing, and now having to to that on the forums..? No thanks.

Now i have to choose between always having my character read the forum posts, or be punished for not doing that... I remember when they added special features when quoting others and I was SO hyped about it. Now, I want to remove forums from the internet entirely - though I can already hear people in forum posts yelling at me for not using forum posts. Ugh...

Forums are my favourite place in the internet, but I always hated how the forum posts made me read pointless crap. But I still loved the forum so I ignored it. Now ALL forum posts have an EVEN WORSE psot..! Why..!?

Now, I understand that most people probably love the introduction of forum posts, but personally I've never had an issue with the normal reddit for the past 11 years of playing, and I've no idea why they felt the need to change that. We've got reddit, twitter, Google+, SHOUT in cities, facebook, and this patch even gave us MySpace. WHY on earth do we need forum post too?

Please, at least give me an option to toggle them off permanently...

Again, I know it's a stupid thing to be mad about, but I genuinely feel like it makes my gameplay experience worse, as weird as that may sound.

Okay, rant over...

What do you think? Do you love forum posts, do you HATE it like I do? Or do you not care at all?

Thanks for reading
