[font=Arial]Hi,
I can't speak for the Product Managers or Support at CA but can respond to the deleting of threads here on the message boards. We do not delete any threads unless they are obvious duplicates or go against the MyCA Communities Code of Ethics. I have included it below for reference.
Regards,
Chris
CODE OF ETHICS
Community leaders and members are requested to help ensure that the group is focused around knowledge sharing to better enhance the user’s deployment, implementation and usage of CA Technologies’ software. Any product related questions, problems or issues which the group is unable to address should be brought to the proper technical support or services contacts, and then escalated to the Communities Team for follow up as appropriate.
Community leaders and members are expected to act in a professional manner and be respectful to others, their property, and any proprietary information which may be discussed. All community members will refrain from illegal copying, exchange or distribution of copyrighted materials or software. All community members will not use the group names, activities, or other members’ names in an inappropriate or unethical activity that would result in either personal or professional gain for themselves, their employers, or their own businesses. Community members must uphold the laws regarding licensing and restrictions applicable to commercial software and between their company and CA Technologies.
Violating the Code of Ethics may result in membership termination from the CA Technologies’ communities. CA Technologies sets out the terms and conditions of your use of our services in the Terms and Conditions agreed to when registering for MyCA. Some of the key things to remember are:

Stay on topic. Although some groups hold different standards, most groups appreciate it when you stay on topic. If you constantly stray from the topic you may be moderated or removed from a group altogether by the leaders of that community.
•
You may not use this community for commercial or advertising purposes.
•
You may not post content which infringes the intellectual property, privacy or other rights of third parties.
