So the question is, was the thread deleted because it was offensive or because it was a copycat thread? We'll probably never know.

When I spotted it, I thought - 'uh oh, I don't think they're gonna leave that one there!', so I wasn't surprised when it was deleted. Then the same post turned up in the Viagra thread and was left there, so that suggests to me that the thread was deleted because it was a copycat - or maybe as some have said, the clones changed their minds. Who knows?

One thing's for sure, it got a lot more exposure (;-)) from being deleted than if it had just been left alone. Yes, it was a bit 'off', but it wasn't a derogatory term and not half as bad as some things I've seen.

Talk about a storm in a teacup!!
