This is what happens when a thread is raised without proper discipline or role models.

Well I'm glad Kill this Thread didn't achieve sentience. Of course there's no intelligent life in that thread.
On the other hand, it might be very angry with us for trying to kill it for so long.

"Amok is a Southeast Asian trance syndrome. This trance is usually characterized by a short-lived sudden outburst of unrestrained violence, often involving killing, preceded by a period of brooding, and finally being completed by exhaustion. In indigenous context, the amok behavior is attributed to interpersonal conflict, personal abuse, intolerable embarrassment, shame, and loss of honor." As described by Bruce E. Barnes in "Culture, Conflict and Mediation in the Asian Pacific. Excerpt found here
