Why did the Paul Phillips WSOP TOC Thread get deleted?

[IHateCats]

Anyone else not buying Mat's rather lame rejoinder? Paul has put up with 10x as much as abuse as he's put out and contributes some of the very best analysis in this forum, yet his thread is deleted doubtless resulting in his depature? Seriously -EV for this board and a pathetic error in judgement, enough with the moderator power tripping already.
