...needlessly inhibits the sense of community in your game. Instead, forums managers should strive to foster it by embracing people from the different walks who find common ground in your community.
The example I refer to was a harmless, community fostering "what do you do for a living" thread that I found interesting (being a closet wow geek myself) and found it was deleted as I was going through the pages. I say harmless because I'm having trouble determining the down side to a thread like that. Surely it can't be attributed to something as trivial as cost since it's the very community POPULATING such a thread that is paying, at a minimum, $15/mo for years on end....
If not cost, then what is the motivation of deleting community enhancing threads?
