>>11035749>for as long as you wantGoing by deletes in 4chanX over time that's a bit hyperbole. It's for longer, with some stuff staying up.
My guess is that only a small percentage of people on this site ever report anything that isn't illegal, even smaller for stuff that's just off-topic or apparent trolling, and that no one is watching those threads 24/7. So the thread with more eyes is more more likely to get reports, if any.
I think most people just ignore this theory because either it doesn't something specifically to point to, and because they are on the receiving end of people who will take up positions and sides they don't genuinely agree with just to have fun pissing off others. But I don't think I'm wrong, and I think it applies to a lot of this site.
