Dude, starting a 'private' thread on a public forum is a dumbass move. Furthermore, doing so with a new account (which may or may not be against site policy, I'm not sure anymore) and no explanation whatsoever of who you are or why you would like to do such a thing is just plain disrespectful. How can you not get this?

For the record, I've been a member for over three years, if we want to get into the membership-length dick waving competition. Not that this has any bearing on the topic at hand whatsoever, except insofar as to point out that you've been here long enough to know better. A cryptic thread about muppets that the general population for whom this forum exists are 'not allowed' to post in is just begging to be turned into a ridiculous .gif-a-thon.

What you did here was equivalent to barging into my living room and asking me to please stay out while you and your friends do your project. It's my goddam living room. Get your own.
So, yeah. We destroyed your thread. You had it coming. And that, as they say, is that.
