What happened to the earlier thread?

Discussions of offerings is a part of the education process for me.
I understand there was some contention, IMO not any more than usual, but there was also discussion of a significant auction [to me]. I can understand modifying posts. I do not understand pulling the entire thread. It does seem like this is a reaction to the squabble being between two EarlyS insiders [nobility] vs relative unknowns of Jack and Yale.
