Why were these threads locked? What rules did they break?

I got duped. GJ stairway!

as for the why of banning then- you really not as interested as you seem.

your like click bait for the mods.

now, I think I no longer feel sorry for you...

Could do some actually misogynistic ones so they'd have a good reason.

Instead of "I want to have sex with attractive women" you'd have to go along the lines of "women are ugly and worthy of my hate."

Now that I type it, seems like opposites...

Nah, I don't do anything with the intention of offending anyone. I'm not a misogynist. I was legitimately surprised that they got locked, however, as they were going rather smoothly. I'll have to think of some new threads, however, when I have ample time. Meanwhile, let's get this to a thousand comments, shall we?

                                                                            This is Mr Sok P Puppet bringing you BREAKING NEWS out of Chess.com. Earlier this afternoon in Calif, a number of mods disquised themselves as PETS from RJC's thread and started killing a large number of Sock Puppets                                                                                                                                                  When asked why they did it, a mod representative referred to it as a pre-planned Christmas Cleaning. Parents and family members are flocking to the site. Athorities have asked Erik to shut down the thread.
