Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread

If nonoise is for us who can be against us. 

Somehow, I was having issues getting into Whats Best Forum, but magically I can again.  It seems the thread is starting there with Viking Acoustics weakly defending themselves.  So my question is, how does a thread get deleted in Audiogon?  Does Viking Acoustics contact Audiogon and say remove the thread or does Audiogon based on its own rules delete the thread?  I've always wondered about that. 

Well there's no really good reason for the thread to be deleted. There were no politics, no slander, no name calling. I doubt anyone other than Viking got their precious feelings hurt. Just facts by the OP (as far as we know) and posts of support from members. Audiogon does itself no good to delete such a thread, even at the behest of the manufacturer in question.

There’s a thread on audio shark now about a buyer who was scammed by another company and audiogon also deleted that thread. 

I believe we are entitled to know the companies who scam. Poor service, and lying to buyers.
