I remember I and another fourm user made some posts on horny craft, but after checking today they mysteriously disappeared without any notification, did the dev do this or some fourm moderator? I just want to know what happened

Only the author of a post, moderators and staff members can delete a post. Members owning a thread, like some devs with their game thread, don't have this power. Devs and modders have a bit more rights in the case and can edit the thread opening (and in fact their posts) without time restriction, but that's all.
If there's no notification it's generally because the deletion was a side effect of some thread cleaning ; generally because your posts where referencing deleted posts, or part of the side discussion that have been removed. Then depending of the number of secondary posts to clean and the time the moderator have, sometimes it happen that those secondary posts are deleted without notification.
In case of doubt, or when you want to have more information regarding the deletion, you can open a ticket and ask for some explanations. But you should wait a bit, Icarus Media already called the cavalry, you'll perhaps have the answer without needing to open a ticket.

was the phrasing too much then or just don't want to talk about potential controversies that much in the thread? because he had some controversies around him, I was just curious because usually people who out themselves as transphobes aren't received well, then again might be just rumors.
Edit: I was not trying to imply he actually committed sucicde IRL, just that he might have destroyed his reptuation

I guess that it's everything, from the phrasing to the bad mouthing, including the poverty of the arguments. Hence Redknight reference to conspiracy theories in his answer.

They effectively aren't, but in an adult way, what mean that they are mostly ignored ; don't talk to morons, it educate them. There's no need to wonder what happened to "him", nobody care about such person.

ok, that's what I wanted to know, it wasn't meant to be bad mouthing just discussing the controversy moreso, I would've appreciated a straight answer instead of a joke illuminati symbol like it was obvious, because it wasn't to me clearly
