He's currently not online, but I can try my best to explain it from what I know.

So from what I know, the previous staff team didn't like the Discussions feature. A lot of this stuff happened before my time as staff so my understanding isn't as clear as others, but I'm pretty sure they were trying to either migrate Discussions to either Discord or migrating Discussions to the Forums. Could have also been for a future migration of Forums to Discussions, but I am not sure.

As far as I'm aware no one actually moderates the Discussions, they get checked once a week and someone purges all the topics. I believe we have ended up having a discussion in our Staff Discord Server about what to do with the discussions, but I don't remember much from it.
