Questions again! :) Deleting other people's comments

Is it accurate to think people are able to delete other people's comments here?
If so, at any time or only on their own posts and why? :)

If you start a thread, such as this one, you own it. You can delete anyone's comments. You don't have that kind of power over someone else's thread.

@Northwest I appreciate the fact we can delete spam, hate, etc... I just wonder how often comments might get deleted just because someone doesn't like them.

@SW-User I don’t know how often it happens. I have some rules for participation in my threads: remain on point and don’t try to hijack the thread by switching stories.

Some people simply delete what they don’t agree with.

@Northwest I didn't understand it at the time, but I do believe someone deleted one of my comments because I didn't agree. Makes you wonder exactly which posts (people) to comment with.

@SW-User You learn by experience. There are several SW accounts, whose comments I choose not to comment on, as they are liable to delete my posts, or misrepresent them, by deleting comments leading up to them.
