Why was my thread moved?

I am curious why my thread
http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=404899
titled "Philosophical basis for flaming/trolling" was moved to spam. It was intended to spark intelligent discussion. Should I have posted more of the content of the site? Or should have given it another title? The site I link to in my post is humorous, but it is also serious in its exposition of the reasons why in annonymous situations humans are uncaring. I feel the discussion could be well above the fun, but ultimately empty, content of such threads as "Paradise Club."

The title did not appear to have anything to do with trolling and or flaming, and when I read the site, it also seemed to have nothing to do with the subject at hand -- though my work filter did cut it off after the bit about garbage men being out of the monkey sphere.

We also do not like to appear to encourage flaming and trolling on this site, as both are warnable and ultimately deletable offenses.

It is a humorous approach to philosophy. It was certainly not meant to encourage trolling or flaming, and my title was mostly a "narrative hook". Does this mean I can re-title the thread and post it again?

I'd be willing to move it back into General and retitle it if you can come up with a more suitable title -- and if, when I see it (in about an hour and a half) I can confirm that my work filter was overly sensitive. Fair enough?

Don't worry about it. I'll want to change the first post anyway, I just wanted to clear the idea with you. Thanks for being so gracious. Peace.
