I am curious why the user responsible for the poll deleted their account, and appears to have deleted all their comments (unless comments by deleted accounts are deleted, which I doubt.)

Your doubts are correct. You need to delete your comments manually if you particularly want them gone. The deletion in question was just run of the mill internet drama.

The user that made the poll was Roko.
