Fairly trivial but still - MNHQ thread deletion messages

I've noticed that these have started to be extremely brief and uninformative. I'm sure you have loads more important stuff to do but actually it was quite nice to have a tiny bit more info on why you decided to take an entire thread down.
Previously banned poster = fine, understandable, no further detail required
Breaking talk guidelines though - what? which ones? why?
It just seems to have become very clinical now, rather than informative.

But not really a big thing.

Hi All,
We do understand your frustration with thread deletions.
Its a really tricky line to follow.

As moderators, we all love writing a more interesting deletion message.

But often there is a lot of stuff coming in. When you see a 'Broke TGs' one it will usually be related to Spam posts and there will be a lot of threads that are going at once.

When we take a thread down to look at the OP, we will have received a significant number of reports, and there will usually be something else that makes us want to dig a bit deeper.
However, I do see your point, it is good to see there are real people out there. I will try and write more interesting deletion messages.

I still miss MNHQ just popping on to threads to join in, or chatting whilst telling posters to rein it in.

Can you rein it in, @WishTheGroundWouldSwallowMeUp?
