I am and always will be a firm believer that a thread should NEVER be deleted in it's entirety unless the original poster had 100% of their content in that thread. I don't know which moderator had said "maybe the entire thread should go" but that was the wrong suggestion. We have the option to temporarily delete a thread, remove the requested content, and make the thread available again. It can take time but I personally think for anything deemed "original content" it's worth the effort.
The last thing I would want to see is OCC become a shell of its former self, thread after thread of original content deleted. I think this site was built on original content and should continue to thrive with that same content.
