To whomever is responsible for how the site functions: I wonder if there'd be a way to preserve POSTS THAT HAVE REPLIES when someone departs or is banned from the forum.
The problem with having ALL the posts deleted is now you have these threads with great replies and dialogue that appear to be responding to nothing.
I'd be fine knowing that any post I make in a thread that receives one or more replies is unable to be deleted.

When someone leaves they have the option to keep or delete their content.
