When I want to remove an off-topic of cluttering discussion from a thread, I have to remove it all, not just the worst posts.
Let's say I removed DHTP's posts and not yours. Would yours have made any sense at that point? Obviously not, as you were responding to him. Plus, he would then legitimately have a gripe with me, as I would have removed one side of the argument but not the other.
I said in the OP here that I believe your posts on this forum are very good, including the ones I disagree with. I still think that. Sometimes -- not often -- I just have to delete a group messages which I feel are derailing a thread.
I care much less about one-off short posts from guys like dwai or devidee, as they don't disrupt very much.
In fact, I'd like to see one from devidee, because I think he might be dead.
