I will agree that removing comments was a bad idea. What I would've done in this situation instead, is to make an announcement about adding a new rule against unrelated comments on pages, and issuing bans for such behavior after the rule was put in place. Warnings obviously aren't enough to deter people from this, but the entire wiki shouldn't have to recieve a punishment for the actions of a few.

Regardless of that, though, 2 days is hardly a long time, and a lot of the arguments against stopping users from leaving unrelated comments are ignorant at best and nonsensical at worst. I would recommend reading prior replies if you (the reader) plan to make a statement against this, as many of the points made already have been disputed.

talking about pet party : related since promo pet collectors can go there.

talking about promo pet scams : related

talking about member phantoms : related since many promo collectors also collect phantoms. and they consider it like a promo pet.

drawing promo pets : related

as you can see everything is related. if they want people to follow their rules they should make it more precise :) not just "unrelated comments are spams bla bla " Not necessarily. While all of these topics are somewhat related to Promo Pets, hardly any of them have to do with the specific content regarding Promo Pets: their values.
