Mods, why was the thread closed in the lounge?

I can understand not liking the site where the pic was linked too, but couldn't you have just got the OP to change the opening post like he said he would (ie host it from else where?)

Seemed liked the thread was staying on course etc, rather than detract from the point(question?) the OP was making?

Just as a thought, as it had potential to be entertaining as far as lounge topics go.

I couldn't understand it either, it's just plain stupid in my opinion.

I assume it was closed due to the link with 4chan.

Agreed, but the OP recognised it, and said he could/would? host it else where? could that not have just happened rather than close the thread?

Wasn't there an almost identical thread a few weeks ago?

The pic is from kuvaton not 4chan.

It was actually an interesting thread.
Shame the discussion was ended.

I disagree, it was drivel IMO.

The image was poor taste.
But perhaps the desert island survival subject had more to it.
Similar to the Zombie apocalypse thread

Perhaps, but the image set the tone of the thread.

I thought it was just a light-hearted, fun thread.

Y'know, fun.

he deleted his original post and started a new one, so seemed pretty pointless keeping the old one.

New one is here for ref
