Sep 25, 2016 at 9:10 comment added Fiksdal @J.R. Excellent. Thanks for hearing me out and thanks again for the discussion that day. :)
Sep 25, 2016 at 8:51 comment added J.R. Mod It was an interesting conversation, but it strayed from the main point of the question. When three or four comments turn into 18 or 20, don't be surprised if a lot of them get removed. I removed my two remnant comments, since you seem to object to that in principle.
Sep 25, 2016 at 7:44 comment added Mari-Lou A It is difficult to remember at times but mods are not robots, they are human beings. And there will always be differences in opinion. One man's "fluff" is another man's "treasure".

Sep 25, 2016 at 4:52 comment added Fiksdal @ColleenV Yes, yes, that comment is not important. I'm not talking about that comment. I'm talking about the whole conversation. Regarding obsolescence, I think that sounds fair and wonder if it may apply to the whole conversation. ("Repeating myself here, sorry.,)
Sep 25, 2016 at 2:04 comment added ColleenV Mod The comment with the link in it was deleted by you, not the moderator (I assume because you felt like it was obsolete when the other comments were removed). Anyhow, I don't want to speak for J.R., but I will say that comments are kept or deleted based on their content, not because of who posted them.

Sep 25, 2016 at 0:28 comment added Fiksdal @ColleenV Well, the link to hotness formula is not in any of the remaining comments. Yes, I believe incorporating everything into answers is indeed a great option. So, for example all comments here could have been deleted. And the possibility that the HNQ might have been a factor could be discussed in an answer. That sounds consistent. That way, both sides of the comments can be removed rather than just one.
Sep 25, 2016 at 0:27 comment added ColleenV Mod I want to make sure to say I think this is a good discussion to have. Sometimes I can't make the tone of comments sound as nice as I'd like because there isn't enough room for how verbose I am :)
Sep 25, 2016 at 0:20 comment added ColleenV Mod You left out the "incorporate the points from the discussion into your answer" option in your list of possibilities. Discussions in comments are great, but they are difficult to search (I hate to say impossible just because I don't know how to do it). I assume that J.R. left certain comments alone because he felt they had valuable information relevant to the discussion, like the link to the hotness formula. Keep in mind that anyone can delete their own comments, so it can happen that a few comments are out of place. Just flag them as obsolete if you come across any.
