I have to say first of all that, for me, the Gambling Section is the lowest quality one. Some people say it's the Bitcoin Discussion one but in my opinion the Gambling Section is worse because most people write there just because they get paid extra or have minimun requirements of their signature campaigns.
In the Bitcoin Discussion one you get more shitposting from people who don't know much about bitcoin or cryptos and don't care either but they want to get merits and activity so they can join signature campaigns and make money.
Also, I'm not taking into account the alts section or the local ones which I never visit.
Anyway, I've just realised that a topic titled: "Good hand vs bad hand in poker" has been deleted. I'm not too surprised as I posted there and my comment hinted that most people writing in that thread weren't going to engage in actual discussion. I also commented on the levels of poker thinking and was merited for that (from a guy who I guess understands poker to a certain level).
The thread went on like a "What was first the egg or the chiken?" one, so some people were saying good hand, others bad hand mostly in a pointless way, like: "I don't know much about poker but I think..."
But the thing is, shouldn't many threads on that forum be deleted? I'm not talking about threads like the
UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread NewI know moderators delete threads when they are reported and I don't if they also do on their own initiative.
What has come to my mind is that if a hard line of action on that board was taken, wouldn't the casinos that announce themselves in the forum and that run signature campaigns complain? I've always thought maybe moderators were more lenient in that board because of that.
So, I'd like to ask if there are any specific criteria to delete topics and not lock them for example. I know that as creator of a thread one can lock the thread and I've done so in the past but I suppose moderators can too.
