myk Posted November 25, 2010 Your question holds the answer: So that they aren't deleted. The junk thrown there may have some value, at least as entertainment or to show people what they should not do. The fact that the forum is locked, that it has annoying effects and that it can't be searched all discriminate the bad threads without having to eliminate them completely. 0 Share this post Link to post

It's like A Clockwork Orange. There's vomit inducing music and effects going on while you're reading bad posts, so after a while you begin to associate the two and become physically ill whenever you try to start a bad thread. 0 Share this post Link to post

Kirby Posted November 25, 2010 It's like Doomworld's own hall of shame, except on fire. Very much on fire. With Rutabaga Salad. 0 Share this post Link to post

Foodles Posted November 26, 2010 whos that picture of in post hell, the one where the Doomworld banner usually is? 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted November 26, 2010 You mean the picture of the hot chick with horns? More on topic, most bad threads, or bad portions of threads, do get moved to Post Hell. But in exceptional cases, where someone has just taken a dump on the forum and/or is posting the same stuff again and again and again, the decision might be taken that it is best to remove it completely. 0 Share this post Link to post
hervoheebo Posted November 27, 2010 Why not? If everything would just get deleted, it'd be awfully boring. Doomworld's forums wouldn't be the same without PH. There's a lot of funny shit there if you persist looking despite or because of the background song. (while funny, I prefer the Picard song) 0 Share this post Link to post
Radon Posted November 27, 2010 Picard song, got me laid on my prom night. Troof. Wait a second. In PH, that's actually a chick?! 0 Share this post Link to post
