The original question was from March 2009. Deleting that three years later is bad internet citizenship -- it's removing internet history for no good reason.

Fair enough, if it was a new question asked today, no question, delete it, as it's clearly off-topic now, according to the rules they've clarified and developed over the years. But when these types of questions were asked originally they were on topic at the time. Deleting them retrospectively is poor form.
