iirc it was just one admin who was tasked to archive certain threads that were past a date, but they screwed up and archived pretty much EVERYTHING, including threads from the mod forum. I wasn't around when it actually happened, but they apparently didn't make a backup and there were just so many threads archived that they had to throw everything in one pile, including said moderator subforum threads.
Although it was an embarrassment on the staff's part, it was an amazing way for the members to see how each mod really acted behind the scenes; e.g. whether they were being reasonable or unreasonable, or who actually gave a damn about things like warn redemptions.
