The "Why was my thread anchored" thread does not cover why my thread was anchored.

My thread about something called "Elsa Gate" was almost immediately anchored before any real discussion was able to take place. Looking at the "Why was my thread anchored (or deleted)" thread, I can't figure out why it would have been.

Numerous threads on #PedoGate - a largely conspiratorial topic with little backing from mainstream news sources - have flourished in the past. There is currently a 383 page thread on the Poli Board about a massive governmental conspiracy, and its only backing is a source from 4Chan.

I at least provided Business Insider as a legit source to validate the conversation.

Just curious what I might have done wrong in posting that thread.

1. The subject of the thread is too short and not descriptive enough. We often see users just put one word or sometimes two words. Even 3-4 words can be too short. These are immediately anchored. Again, be descriptive. The subject should contain the point of your thread.

The title of the thread was twelve words long, asked a specific question, and had a keyword that alluded to a number of threads featuring similar topics of conversation. But whatever.

The subject matter is icky. And don't feel the need to promote a Reddit page that discuss it

Chicken, is there a symbol or sign that a thread has been anchored without entering the topic discussion?
