What happened to my thread about blue footed boobies

Posted 04 November 2008 - 11:01 AM

What happened to my thread on blue footed boobies. Back when I moderated this place I at least had the common courtesy to say why I was deleting a thread.

But it is ok to have threads about Oreo cookies and other assorted asshattery? WTF Man, sure it was a stupid thread but there is a hell of a lot of other stupider stuff getting posted in the lounge. And this could have been avoided with a some tact with a PM.

For the record, I deleted the thread...it was an unfortunate casualty of the follishness and immaturity that has been present in the lounge over the last month. Thorian's funny thread got caught up in that lameness, with inappropriate pictures being posted to it.

In times where the number of inappropriate responses was lower, it was possible to simply edit out the offending portions. With the recent increase however, the number of edits required has increased as well. Sometimes, an entire thread may be deleted.

The deletion of the thread had nothing to do with the intended content.

Thorian does have a valid question, however. If i did not have the time to edit the thread and chose to simply delete it, I am responsible for letting him know. This was not done.

Sorry viking. :)
