I find that there are way too many ppl in the Japan subforum who start off their replies with "Oh but there's just SOOO MUCH OF _____ IN JAPAN." We all get it. Japan is a vast and extremely diverse country. But it's incredibly annoying to get responses to like when people are asking general survey questions. Maybe OP has no idea what kind of ramen he or she likes. Or maybe they just want to try out a new type that they've never tried before--- or better yet, maybe they just want to see what you, as the experienced traveler, like to eat ramen-wise. Just share your experience and what you know and move on. If you've only had shio ramen and like spot X, then say so. If you've only had tonkatsu and only know spot Y, then share that. Don't just stroll in here and barrage the OP with "Oh but that's SOOOOOOOO vague" posts. Posts like these are so useless imo. Didn't meant to call armagebedar out specifically at all-- this is just for everyone that responds in such a way.
