I have a question and a request.
First, regarding the situation. Yesterday, a number of messages were deleted from the HoMM3 online tournament threads (/topic/2224/ and /topic/2282/), including a couple of mine. The reason was off-topic content.

1. Question. How are posts that are partially off-topic viewed on this resource? That is, part of the post relates to the topic, and part does not. Is this grounds for deleting the entire post? If so, I will try to avoid "lyrical digressions" in the future, as my posts are dear to me at least as a memory of the time spent on them. :)
Although on the other hand, I note that on almost all forums, most posts do not strictly adhere to the topic. And this one is no exception. It all depends on the moderator's preference.

2. Request. The first of the aforementioned threads was closed, but before closing it, moderator Adelaide wrote a response (/topic/at/80163/) to my post. However, since neither the post itself nor even a quote from it has been preserved, those who did not see the entire conversation may get a wrong impression of the content of the deleted posts based on her response. Therefore, I ask that you also delete the remains of this discussion, starting from my first message (posts 60-63).
