- dang 11y agoUsers flagged it. That's nearly always the answer to this perennial question. In fact it would be flagkilled (i.e. marked [flagged] and closed to new comments) several times over, except the software doesn't do that when the thread has many comments.
- smoyer 11y agoI went through over 300 of the top stories and couldn't find it. It was still in its expected position (106) in the "new" pages.
- bryanlarsen 11y agoIt probably wasn't mods, it doesn't take a lot of users flagging an article before it falls off the front page. It's also got a fairly high comment / point ratio, which also causes it to fall faster.
- deng 11y agoIt's probably flagged by people who want to save the author from himself. Seriously, he sounds like a stalker in that post and would be well advised to take it down asap.
