Deleted Threads by Admin??


I’ve read a lot of threads where folks complain about the Administrators removing entire threads. While I have no reason to disbelieve the Admins might in fact remove threads, I discovered by accident that the OP’s can also delete their thread(s). (I did so last weekend when I discovered my premise of the thread was false.) When I clicked on my self-deleted thread, the “error” prompt I received was that the Admin removed the thread. So there appears a couple paths whereby a thread can be removed from the forum.

@hifiman5 thank you for your initial share/post. I’d love to understand why the Mods deleted the thread, though. Did you ever inquire with them? Just curious. 
@celander   Thanks for asking.  In all candor, I do think I included what could be regarded as political references in the original thread and that is why it was deleted.  Other posters here mentioned this and, in the interest of accepting constructive criticism, they were right.
I’m satisfied with the thread ending as it stands. Thanks, for everyone’s contributions!

Well you are certainly very welcome however it appears here that you are laboring under a mistaken, misunderstood, or confused notion that even as the OP you have the right, power, or influence to declare, pronounce, or insist that the thread ends here. It is apparent and obvious to all who have followed in this thread your obvious, deliberate, and even insidious premeditated effort to introduce politics and your own opaque personal agenda into what otherwise would be a simple forum for the exchange of thoughts and ideas about music and audio. In fact this most recent exultation from you that this thread has now ended follows a previous notice from you made within this thread that "this thread is officially off the rails. I’m moving on" but you seem unable to move on because of you’re apparent inner need to obfuscate, confuse, and conceal and of course you can delete this thread as the OP but you can not do that because of you're own ego and sense of personal grandeur.
