Even so I wonder if there was any way I could have presented this that wouldn't result in a locked thread.
Why would you even want to?
Saying "it was simply a presentation of something that happened" doesn't mean you get to post it, you need to post it, you should post it or you should even want to post it. Use your head.
I really didn't know that it was leading up to something that gruesome.
So you posted it without even viewing it? Jeez. :roll:
Add to that the fact that the mods have said over and over that NSFW means NSFAT.
