I protest a thread closing

[Autolycus]

I love happy endings!

As far as I’m concerned, the issue is resolved. I don’t see any need to open any further threads on this subject. My thanks to Marley23 and everyone for taking the time to address my concerns.

The title is "I’m posting this for all the wrong reasons"

The OP consisted of a link.

IMO, that is not a thread.

YMMV

Yep. I can’t speak for the other mods, but my thinking is that if you’re not invested enough in your OP to contribute anything more than a link, then you won’t mind us clearing out the lazy OPs so that other threads, with ongoing dicussions, have a chance at the front page. This isn’t to say that the link wasn’t interesting to you or other people, but we don’t want the forums overrun by threads with titles such as “Hey, look at this!” and then a link with no other text. Digg is a better place for posts like that.

Okay, seeing as more than one person has brought it up, I’ll comment. The post I made was not just a link. There was a line of text in my original post which looked like this:

Cheerleader takes off her boots and puts on shoes

I used the YouTube description, which I felt was a good explanation of the content, and made the line into a link to the video. When the link was deleted, the line of text was deleted with it.

I suppose I could have varied it slightly and made it look like any of these:

Cheerleader takes off her boots and puts on shoes
Here’s a Cheerleader taking off her boots and putting on shoes
Cheerleader takes off her boots and puts on shoes link

But they seem to be trivial differences from what I actually posted.

And as long as I’m posting.

And I’m baffled that Little Nemo thought it was hawt, and worth posting about. An entire Internet full of explicit hamster-squicking porn, and he’s thrilled by the equivalent of a Betty Grable pinup? I guess that’s kinda sweet, actually, in an Andy Hardy Finds Love sort of way…

I am fully aware that there are much more explicit videos that I could have linked to. But if I had linked to some YouPorn video of “Amateur Swedish Lesbians Ride Sybian” I would clearly have been in violation of this board’s rules. People that want to view hardcore porn will have to find it without my help.

The issue’s over, people, let’s just move along and let it fade away.

…if it excites you to think you can see her “bidness”, then more power to ya…

It does, and I haven’t even seen the video yet! :eek:

Horny at work is no fun…

[essell]

I should point out that if you pause the video at exactly 12 seconds you can see her cooter. :eek:

I think Chowder is the one to talk to

Personally, I would have closed it too. We ask for some content in the OP - “Hey, get a load of this” posts, even if they’re not NSFW, just aren’t appreciated here.

Why not let Dopers decide for themselves whether they’re appreciated?

@Thudlow Boink

My own humble opinion about this: What you describe here is fine. But for each of those posts to be its own separate OP would not. Maybe I’m just afraid of the SDMB degerating into a bunch of “Hey, look at this sexy/funny/cutesy picture/video I just found on teh internets!” OPs.

Why would you think this will happen?
