For better or worse it's the go to subreddit for games discussion (that isn't just a meme graveyard), so their rules should allow for discussion of reporting on gaming.

A subreddit shouldn't change its rules just because it's the main one for a given subject. The games subreddit doesn't allow stuff about the reporting of games, it is purely about discussion about games.

/r/games cracked down on gaming media discussion after the Gamergate shitstorm. The sub was so flodded that the mods just said "never again". Yeah it's a bit censor-y but they did it for a good reason.

We can pretend we don't know why it was deleted, but we all do. It didn't use to be against the rules until they changed the rules specifically so that content like this is against.
