So I normally spend my D3 forum time on the official forums, where I post as Sense of Sargeras (Post history if you care (you don't)). I occasionally post long-winded diatribes or humor, and recently started adding humorous art as well.
The first one was the generally well-received altered wallpaper that has floated about a bit now, which is HERE if you want it.
But apparently Blizzard does not like my latest offering, a portrait of Diablo in his true form:

Twice now the mods have deleted the threads in which this art appeared, within 2 hours of their creation. Not locked with an explanation, nor the normal delete where you can't get to the thread but can still see it in post history. These threads have been fully deleted, the posts themselves vanishing from post history, as if they never existed.
I have no idea why this is particularly heinous to them, as I've been given no explanation nor any account discipline for the threads. The strange 'full delete' though kind of annoys me, so I decided to repost this humble offering to the community on fan sites. It's not really so awesome that it deserves this much effort, but I'm kind of curious as to why this got special mod treatment compared to all the other things that fly over there.
Here's a variation of it that I made specifically for yesterday's release date announcement: http://i.imgur.com/m4rjG.jpg
(as an aside, if anyone knows why it's impossible for me to register a new account or login to diablofans, I'd be grateful to hear it)
