Sootbaiting smells like bait.

Sootbaiting refers to a legendary art form and baiting activity that consisted of getting a rise out of former sharty owner Soot, who was known, at times, to display a short temper. Sootbaiting was accomplished by obvious samefagging, spamming, demoralisation-coaling, shitting up his Q&A threads with meaningless requests, and accusing him of exploiting/datamining his users (a charge to which he was very sensitive). Screenshots of successful sootbaiting attempts (with samefag (You)s included) are routinely shared on the sharty as highly-valued art pieces,^[1] considering only about a half-dozen are known to exist. However, the activity itself became a lost art after Soot's departure.

Nu-Dev Baiting??????[edit | edit source]

You can troll the developer that replaced Angeleno by accusing his identity of being various things. Thus far he has been theorized to be Codefag, Soot, Angeleno, Boot, and Moot (what the fuck?), DOE more may be rumor'd. Also accuse him of being incompetent at coding / missing some obvious method to fix the site
