All "why did my thread get locked" threads are dupes. You know it's coming...

Hell, I had a thread about laptop computers that got TRASHED the other day. Not locked, not moved, but utterly and completely "disappeared". I've just given up even wondering, sometimes. Why'd the thread get locked? Who knows, man, who knows.

becuase the EXACT same thread was on the exact same page.

there is a difference in dupes from different people on a topic and dupes from someone starting the exact same topic multiple times.

that is known as spam

The bandwidth used by the huge pic was causing the internets to crash.

I don't know which one you're talking about, but my guess is, somebody said something REALLY bad.

Actually, no. I was lucky enough to get it resurrected, and nothing bad at all. Somebody was a smartass, but no more so than in any other thread, and certainly less so than in most. It was weird man, just WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRD !!!
