Why Can't we delete posts anymore?

06-25-2005, 07:51 AM

Well?

***fov*** · 06-25-2005, 07:58 AM

What posts are you trying to delete?

I think you can only delete your posts within a certain period of time after they're made. After that, only a mod can do it. I'm not exactly sure what that period of time is (but Doug could tell us).

I don't want any posts deleted. Just wondering.

UPtimist · 06-25-2005, 08:55 AM

Yeah, I was wondering that too (let's see now...)

Nope, couldn't delete it even just after I posted it. (Or am I missing something?)

*Dale Baldwin* · 06-25-2005, 09:45 AM

You used to be able to edit the post to delete it - that option isn't there anymore.

***fov*** · 06-25-2005, 10:00 AM

Well, I'm unable to see what you guys are talking about, because I can always delete posts. I have that power!

Is that because you're a mod?

Yeah.

I'll PM Doug to make sure he sees this thread. He'll be able to say if something changed or not.

Weird. Dunno what happened there. Should be fixed now.

Dammit, tabsie!! Now you'll get Wormsie doing his nasty little habit again!!*

* He had this tendency to post, then delete, then post, then delete again.

Wormsie · 06-26-2005, 03:32 AM

That's just because I regretted how mean I was to people.

Intrepid Homoludens · 06-26-2005, 10:20 AM

Glutton for self-punishment, aren't you?
