Even if there were announcements, it doesn't make it right.

It's the principle of the matter. Many people posted a lot on constructive feedback and requests to Cryptic about the game (which now no longer exist) to be a forum for people to provide their opinions and feedbacks.

Cryptic by going ahead removing them (even when it's their right to do so) simply in my opinion shows that Cryptic has no respect nor concern about what their community thinks.

This is disappointing that a company takes such a position.

DOES IT include feedback from Open Beta? 1/12 - 1/26???? It doesn't look like it.

Plus, ok, so archives exists, so, the threads are just swept under the carpet or in the back of the closet?? hmmmmm

I think posts in ALL CAPS and red text automatically get marked for deletion due to their annoying nature.

Oh be quiet.

This isn't a surprise. They said they were going to do this way back at the beginning of open beta.

They delete 'em and they're trying to sweep complains under the rug. They don't delete 'em and they're trying to hide them in a back closet. Quite obviously you're going to find something to complain about so by all means... shove off.

red capped font messages are always of extreme importance to devs.
Your feedback and game related information in his thread will surely get the devs to make fixes in the next patch.

Uhm ... Yes, it does include OB ... You haven't read them then.
