Off Topic Why are some threads hidden?

[oliver21a]

I have noticed some threads go hidden when they get popular, why is that?

[oliver21a]

To prevent new accounts from accessing them would be my guess

Yes it's usually when they get a lot of traffic. Maybe if you reach a certain amount of activity you can see some

The site would get DMCA'd far more if it were open to everyone, not a lot go through trouble to get access to them

To protect the site from simps invading and reporting. Kinda like what happened to thotsbay
