Recently, in beef with user "Tiger Fist," in Thread pakhitheboss bias| Alleged alt of some ranked member, most likely in a campaign.

The user kept taking the thread off-topic, citing me wherever I felt necessary, and I responded. Then, his posts were reported and deleted by the Moderator.

But mine quoting and replying to his weren't for some reason. I can't find any rules regarding "Posts to be self-deleted, in case the quoted Post has been deleted due to off-topic/spam."

So, I got a message from a Mod requesting me to delete the posts for a reason: "Since the posts you commented on in this thread have been deleted for being off-topic, your posts are now left “hanging in the air.” Therefore, they should be deleted." (I am not disclosing the Name of the person, only a partial DM, I hope it won't be counted for plagiarism).

The moderator did the right thing by asking, for there are no rules for such an event, or had there been in the past (I never came across such)

The posts I self-deleted:
