What would be your guess as to the reason why, for instance, the long "What is Civility?" thread was deleted?

People were emoting and fighting on the Posers and Puzzles Forum?

It was lively way back then.

Of course not; it has always set high marks for civility; no longer "lively".
because it doesn't provide the venue for "emoting and fighting".

It lowers the lowest common denominator of civility on this forum which will eventually
lose its appeal for those who have no need to emote and fight in public. Period..

Posers and Puzzles' first page of threads goes back to 7 March 2015. For the Debates Forum you need to go back more than 20 pages of thread titles ~ 600+ threads ~ to find 7 March.
How can you possibly claim that the "same thing" happened at Posers and Puzzles as is "in the process of happening" at the Debates Forum?

Good grief. You have some cheek seeking to lecture others on the "lowest common denominator", Grampy Bobby.
