I'm answering honestly but those "should I watch this" threads are stupid in my opinion. I mean, you're the only one who should decide that. Since you might miss out if people say that you shouldn't.

I don't know about the worst, but bait threads are the best.
If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time.

Watch more movies, please.

Perhaps, this is hell.

If you ever feel bored and are questioning the meaning of your existence, read deez blogs. Maybe you will find your answers.

Asking to watch sub or dub forums are the worst. Most people who answer are weebs who did not even see the dub.

Do I even care anymore?

I'd say those controversial loli = pedo threads, but they keep up activity. I'd say the common X is overrated, but they make my post count go up. I'd say Dragevard's threads but that would boost his ego, plus I don't actually hate any of the threads you make.

Everything is good. So everything is equally bad.

I’m fine with almost any thread, as long as it’s not about isekai and hentai, since those seem to be the most spammed/repetitive topics on AD. Also, troll/bait threads that provoke others, as well as the “should I watch this? Is this worth it?” type of threads can be a bit obnoxious as well.

I also find the questionnaire threads to be really fun, but those are quite rare unfortunately.

When you saw the same thread a billion time already complaining about isekai, shonen, modern anime or female characters and you're still looking for who asked.

Hands down the worst threads on here are the deliberately inflammatory fringe opinion hate threads. Every time I check MAL there's always something like "here's why this highly rated and extremely popular show fucking sucks" full of inane bullshittery that reveals why all fifty people arguing in the thread are completely devoid of critical thinking skills.
And of course like, people are entitled to have separate opinions on stuff and voice their preferences, but the fact that these threads are like never-ending and there's so much negativity is tiring. Like don't people get tired of hating on things all the time?? I hate Sword Art Online but I don't make threads about it to complain or argue with people who like it. There's no point in stirring that pot because nobody involved is gonna change their opinion.
I know it's hypocritical to get all uppity and complain but the fact that these forums are constantly stewing in a toxic sludge of bad faith is just genuinely so annoying. Sometimes it feels like nobody cares about fostering an environment where meaningful discussion can take place. Complaining all the time is a habit that seems to get rewarded on here and it's difficult not to succumb to it.
I'd literally rather see hentai/ecchi threads because at least then the perverts are talking about stuff they like.

'That funny, self-deprecating, anime is a mistake but that's the joke we all love this shitty medium' thread is the worst. It's not funny, even if it was back then, that was years ago. Fucking stop.

Definitely the overrated/underrated/mid threads that belligerently rants with zero justification or explanation besides "it's overrated because I find it bad", which in fairness is almost all of them.

I voted ecchi/degenerate threads. It's not that I hate them all, but I'm having flashbacks of two+ years of alsmot daily IPE threads, and I can say without a doubt they're the most garbage, cringe-inducing, sad things I've ever read on a forum.
