It seems he is digging it further. I am curious if he is doing these odd things, knowing that it will make him worse in front of the community; it shows he did nothing for the benefit of the community. He did all these things to lure merits he already earned, and those threads have no purpose now. I do not see any reason for removing them except what I have said.

He is acting like, okay, you guys ruined my reputation? I won't let you guys benefit from my articles. Newbies did nothing against him. Newbies do not even dare to speak against him. Or he could be frustrated with them because he helped many of them but not a single newbie speaks for him, so he is deleting newbie guides.
