Titles like:

“Describe my X in one word.”

“Say yes if you would X”

“My X told me my Y are too Z. Thoughts?”

“X or Y, which one do you choose?”

“Do X like my Y?”

I have seen them all over on Reddit, and have started to see them popping up here. To me these feel like pretty blatant click/upvote bait. I see no problem with content creators posting, but should there be some restrictions in place?

    Yes they’re terrible because they work. I remember one thing I liked about /r/aww was they banned titles like “Are iguanas allowed here?” Or “isn’t my Fido cute?” It helped the sub’s quality and I think it was one of the best default subs over on that website.
