Why was my post deleted?

[JiggaJigga]

Hey,

this is to the moderaters. My post was the rock papper scissors one and it was deleted. I want to know why. It was in the off topic section and it didnt violate any of the rules.

Please be clear and don't say "Because i can"

Stop the image leeching...

Its pretty obvious it was locked due to serving no purpose at all except hunting for posts by linking to pictures.

And if a thread is locked maybe you should ask the one who locked it in private instead of asking so openly ?

It's just a post for fun. There's no need to delete it. And i don't know who deleted it so i couldn't pm.

As I mentioned when I locked the thread, many of the (absurdly-large) images were hot-linking directly to other sites, stealing their bandwidth (a.k.a. leeching.)

If you want to post images, attach them to your post, or upload them to a free image hosting site and link to that version.

How do i attach them to my post?

You know, next time you make a thread, you could make it yourself instead of copying it from others.

I'm betting the forum will have a low space limit though considering they restrict signature images to 30kb or less

I thought it was because they were smart, I find huge flashing sigs and avatars offensive myself

Why would posting lots and lots of random images be fun? Guess it wouldn't be fun to you if it wouldn't increase your postcount :)*

also surely this thread could be done via pm?
