[PYROLYSIS]

It's a privately owned site with an owner that can moderate it to his or her liking. I'm guessing it wasn't just one jerk that crossed the line but multiple incidents that got the threads closed. It's easier to keep that kind of stuff off the site altogether than try to please a wide range of what people consider offensive. I believe those threads lasted as long as they did as a way to make it easier to watch the edgy content by giving people one place to post that stuff. We can have fun and joke with each other without going too far. I do realize that the majority of the content in those threads passes as OK but it's really not that big a loss in my opinion.
