Because if we've anything to learn about past arguments and hostilities, it's that deleting half the conversation will make the problem go away.
Around four or five posts were outright deleted by me as they either had absolutely no context remaining or because they were deemed completely unnecessary after the split. With that said, only short posts were removed so that no-one's time or thoughts were exactly wasted.
Regardless of that fact, deletion rarely, if ever, comes about as a result of some form of censorship. Non-constructive posts, particularly those laced with negative or passive-aggressive undertones, are not prioritised very highly when it comes to determining which posts are worth keeping. Preventing future conflict is just as important to me as dealing with existing examples.
If I have removed any particular message which you would argue was topic-worthy then I do sincerely apologise, but as Freelance(in part) mentioned, that is where PMs serve a purpose. Sarcastically commenting in a topic that was just cleaned, on the other hand, is not the answer.
Not to specifically address Edda with this, as I mean this post generally. Though should anyone have any concerns or disagreements then please do use PMs. Communication solves most misunderstandings, but not within topics themselves.
