Because this is the Random Topics Center forum, and people should be able to have a little fun somewhere. Besides, some people probably never heard of spiders, in the internet sense, and will now learn about then from this post! BDS
Bob: Sometimes it's a judgement call. If a topic of yours gets locked (like your one similar to this), send us an e-mail and ask for it to be reconsidered. We have reopened topics in the past.
That sounds almost exactly what I said... I'm not trying to cause problems here or anything, I'm just confused...
Bob: Next time (if ever) you get a topic locked, send one of us a PM (preferably the mod that locked it) and ask for it to be reconsidered, if you feel it was wrongly locked. It's kind of late now on your old topics, but bear it in mind for the future.
