The question about what's wrong with them belongs in Forum Issues. The actual posting of babe threads belongs in the locked-threads pile.

I'm going to take a wild guess here and say it's because many here cannot simply enjoy pictures of beautiful women without making crude,tasteless comments.

Also sometimes people link series of images from a photographer's or company's website and they dont like people stealing copyrighted images and bandwidth like that.

rudeguy, you've been here long enough to realize that the mods seldom answer questions as to why they do things...

you should remember this.

There were too many of them. Not really a porn issue, just the mods got sick of the entire first page of OT being a list of babe threads.

The reason is that babe threads were a "trick" someone would post a pic of a nice looking >>FULLY CLOTHED<< girl, BUT, that pic would be girl001.jpg and the "trick" was to follow the numbers through the series 002/003/004 which were pictures that would never be allowed to be linked here }Porn{

DING, DING, DING!
We have a winnar!
There's that and the fact that the SPCA kept complaining to Anand about the threads.
