Can we have an Entertainment or Fiction board for "Bizarre" threads, instead of deleting them?

There's an ongoing thread on AIBU about "starving misogynists" Grin and I'm sure posters have reported it to oblivion.

If MNHQ checks and sees this is a troll or a pbp or wants to check behind the scenes or something, could they please banish this thread (and other threads like it) to that Entertainment section rather than delete it completely.

I ask because these threads are actually harmless and quite entertaining. There's no need to remove them anyway but if doing so because they're untrue or sound too bizarre or because of the OP, let us still get some fun out of them on a board specific to that sort of thing.

This means only MNHQ could move a thread there, perhaps by posters request, if found to be harmless. No harm, no foul.

Yes/No?

I think this is a bad idea. MN is troll central already, without giving them the encouragement of a section to showcase their works

Yes I did think that but I imagined since a thread won't automatically go there except if posters request or if MNHQ deem it harmless enough, the OP can't tell if theirs would make it to the section or not.

But I see what you're saying.
