Just wondering why the "World of Planes" Beta sign-up thread got deleted?

Looking at the forum rules, I didn't see anything that said it wasn't allowed.

On a similar vein is this thread telling everyone who wants to read it that they can get Rise of Flight for free (in Demo Mode):

So when I posted that World of planes was asking Beta Testers to sign up, I felt sure it didn't break either of these forum rules:

4.- Discussions about non-related games (that are not war,air combat, or flight simulation) are not to be discussed on this forums, especially negative contents and comparisons.

World of Planes is certainly "air combat"

6. Advertising posts and topics are prohibited except for the ones already approved by the Administrator. Advertising and usage of website links in user profiles are prohibited unless they were also approved by the Administrator. All such topics and posts will be deleted without prior warning. Users who violated this rule multiple times will be banned from the forum.

If Rise of Flight doesn't contravene Rule 6, why does "World of Planes"?

My post simply said that the "World of Planes" developers were asking is aviation enthusiasts would like to sign up as Beta Testers at this link:

Why is this a breach of forum rules when other Flight Sims can readily be linked to?
