Idk, it seems too much like bullying to me. It isn't "self-deprecating" as DjsFlames likes to say in his defense of it, when you are calling out other people, even if you include your own take now and then. It's like a mass drive-by post which includes no rebuttal of the original posts. Maybe create a post-game "mock my own posts" where people can self-deprecate to their heart's desire? "People shouldn't post if they don't want to be criticized" is just messaging to support the bullying - there's no "criticism" going on in the post, just shaming.
I post this as someone who absolutely HATES the excessive negativity in the GT's and actively avoid them for the most part.
Having said all this, I'll just ignore them.
