• I thought the thread subject was interesting despite being launched with that sexist picture (and I agree with Lynchman).

    I suppose nuking the whole thread was the easier option rather to deleting the offensive posts

    What was sexist about the picture itself? It's one the Deadly Nightshades took themselves and were presumably happy with?

    It was only when that noob came on the thread and posted his sexist comment that it got derailed.

    I'd like to have a Bike Gangs thread on here, but if it isn't sexism it's probably stuff like the Go! Bomb Fixie Crew (which I have to admit I found funny, too, although not a good deal of what was posted) or the Fifth Floor Farrago which has potential to derail it. I'd hope not, but somehow we don't have such a great history with 'gang'-related threads. Perhaps I've just missed the unrelentingly positive ones. As far as I remember, the Trixie Chix one didn't get derailed (?), but that was when the forum was so much smaller and you didn't get randoms in who made stupid comments like the most recent ones.

    Anyway, there'll be another one like that along sometime, I guess.
