BTW, Roko gave permission for LW to restore his comments "under an anonymous username (if it's technically possible)".

The fact that Roko's comments were not restored is understandable because restoring them from e.g. back-up media probably would have been a heck of a lot of work.

But I would like the maintainers of the software to keep an eye out for opportunities to make it easier to restore a whole mess of deleted comments and posts the next time someone mass deletes in a moment of high emotion.
