There were several reasons not to delete the posts by Frank that attacked Paul:
1. Frank responded on something Paul wrote and called it a witch hunt. This is a
direct response on something happening here on CCC.
2. Paul responded more than once with reasons, motives, background and more
evidence. Now it became just a heated discussion.
3. Paul did not complain to the moderators

Mentioning other fora for what they are intended for is no problem. There are
several references to the Arena support forum from CCC. It is a useful method
for giving people directions to other places where they can find information.
Password protection on the Arena support forum is the decision on the admins of
that forum. Criticising how other fora are run is not on-topic and can easily
erupt into flamewars. That is why we do not allow that. This was previously also
the case with CSS-criticism.
