Why do all the treads about Claims Companies seen to disappear?

Bit difficult to get a handle on these companies when it appears it is not possible to see what the results are. Thread seems to have disappeared today about company beginning with K. Although it does seem that obvious spam from first time posters saying how great they are appears to stay.

Maybe they did the same as Cartel and threatened legal action if they were not removed?I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0

Not sure if this is a new stance by MSE, but a recent response I received from the abuse team towards spam was to let it remain if there was some indication of it 'backfiring' on the spammer.
However, don't let that put you off

Guess that is probably the case. Wonder if that means corporations such as Nat West, RBS, Barclays etc, are more happy to let their critics have a voice. Makes you wonder who the good guys really are and what the claims companies are so worried about coming into the open.Maybe they did the same as Cartel and threatened legal action if they were not removed?
If the mods read this, would it not be possible to let the threads run but just blank the names out?0
