I have this to say regarding his refusal to take the threads down:

The remaining threads are just petty, personal drama that make this Wikia look uncivil.

Removing the threads simply keeps them out of the general public's eye and prevents new contributors from encountering them. They can still be accessed through the contribution histories of the participants and having their URLs. You'll notice that the majority of the links I provided here came from threads I removed.

I have nothing to hide. I owed up to my past actions. My friend - whose actions I am not in control of, nor do I condone - apologized for the racial slur. Even by removing my threads, I still have evidence of what BadlyBruisedMuse did and he'll still have evidence against me, even if his threads are removed. In fact, the first thread he sent you was removed by me - again, it's accesible as long as you have the URL and / or know who posted in the thread. Yes, it makes the threads harder to find - but BadlyBruisedMuse and myself are perfectly capable of accessing and providing them to the higher-ups if a judgment has to be made.

It's still up to you and if you have your own rationale for keeping them up, so be it. I just believe keeping the threads publicly available keeps tensions alive and risks giving visitors a negative perception of the Wikia.
