Well, based on the vague answers I once got for deleting this question
[[ Why can't I edit that up there ^. Should be asking this question... ]]
It's primarily because it removes all the chatter and so on which existed in that thread. People might have posted their pictures in there, deeming them not worthy of another new thread, and now they're gone.
Additionally whilst making a new thread pushes an older one off /board, deleting it does not bring that older one back. The damage, therefore, can't be undone.
Or something.
