... there just seems to be a lot of discussions shut down, deleted, etc., over the last 5 years and for the life of me, I couldn’t figure out why. I have actually asked the question, but never got an answer ...
If you use the Contact Us link that is at the bottom of each page, you'll quickly receive an automated reply with a ticket number followed by a personal email from the moderator and, eventually, an automated user feedback form. That's at least three contacts for each inquiry. Something's wrong if that wasn't your result, e.g. the messages went to your spam folder, or perhaps you've confused A'gon with another audio site.
I don't notice many threads being deleted. But I tend to avoid contentious threads and I usually ignore users that seem problematic, so perhaps that explains it.
The angst over this particular deleted thread mostly overlooks the fact that the thread's OP made specific accusations of fraud and stated it was to be a repository for future such claims. That is a very distinct difference than accusing someone of shoddy service or botching an order and creates liability problems for A'gon.
A'gon allows discussion that is critical of dealers and manufacturers, but there's a limit. The post under review here was properly removed, imo.
