Uh, actually guys I didn’t remove the forum!

Forums aren’t built unless they have enough valid content. In this case, I think one category (logo?) didn’t have any positive winners, so the build failed.

So yeah, JB bumumed it was me, but in fact I just let it run its course. Found it hilarious.

LOL. Wow, what a complete waste of righteous nerd rage. Awesome, guys. I think we’ve all learned a valuable lesson here.

I may as well take this opportunity to say, going forward, it should be incredibly obvious that Crotch Zombie still maintains the right to edit or remove user-generated content if we consider it inappropriate. This wasn’t the case with “poop.” But just to respond to viscera’s comments, just about every site featuring UGC is at least somewhat moderated, and we’ve done so from the start. If buildr had a true “anything goes” mentality, things would get out of hand pretty quickly.

Also, for the record: If your entry is buried by an admin, it’s not actually 100 downvotes. The maximum is -5. This just flags it as a buried entry.
