There's no reason to expect anyone to click on any type of link, without giving them an up-front reason to do so. Expecting otherwise would be a spammer's dream. You have to spell out in the post what the link is for.
The upfront reason was so that you would understand the discussion you're part of lol
No it doesn't work that way. Nobody should be expected to follow clickbait.
I just don't understand your logic. In your mind it's okay to make an assumption about the content of a link based off the name of the link. However, it's not okay to make an assumption about the content of the other link and find out why the OP started the discussion. Rather, you believe it would be better to attack the OP for not explaining what their links were to your satisfaction.
Is that right?
