I can't help but wonder, why on earth did they delete it?

The only post you made that actually had some substance was moved over to the discussion on etymology. Your first two posts were basically just pointing people toward another forum, and honestly, we don't allow that kind of self-promotion here.

This is an old topic, and honestly, I think it’s exactly where it needs to be right now. I might end up merging these two if I decide that makes more sense down the road.
