Just because a moderator has been online since the event occurred does not mean that they have read your PM. I get around 30 PMs every day, my inbox is now at 95% full even though I deleted a lot of PMs the other day. I have PMs from a week ago waiting to be read by me and even when read it can take me more time to reply.
Im not sure what moderator actually removed your thread however whoever it is will have a good reason for not replying so I can only suggest re-PMing the moderator, emailing the whole of the moderating team or being patient and waiting for a response.
No threads are 'thoughtlessly' removed, the moderators discuss posts like this and in fact a thread was made about this thread where the matter was discussed.
If you would like to discuss this in more detail then I would suggest the same as I have done above (email/Re-PM/PM another moderator) and we would be happy to discuss it with you. However we do not discuss action we have taken in public unless its for a very important reason/a reason the community as a whole should be aware of.
I hope that helps somewhat.
