As in, not keeping it in the trash can or such but instead completely wiping it from public view.

That's how I found this place. I promise I won't be an annoyance; I barely post on the boards. I just read topics. You'll probably forget about me in a week.

Would there be a point to doing such a thing? If it contains a stupid url to a virus then moderators edit it. No reason to delete posts.

Possible? Yes...

But if they do it... well it have happened. I know for sure that Shroomy deleted a thread once... and that deletion demoted him.

But don't quote me on that, that is just something that I heard. After all I wasn't around that time...

Erkdog deleted a thread as well, Acmlm got ticked, etc.

It was another one of the Erk vs. Me threads we all know and love... er, hate.



But yes, you can easily delete threads. Why some people don't do it is beyond me =P

I don't see Futurama that often (as it's on a time where I never watch TV...) but I have seen hypno toad. Which dosen't make that much sense.

Hiryuu, that reminds me of the [This post was deleted by a drunk Gamefaqs moderator] jokes I have seen. :O

They probably don't delete for for any/all/none of these reasons (I'm not staff so don't depend on this being 100% true):

1. They want a record of what is posted. (Severity of a violation won't depend completely on the mod/admin's opinion)
2. People can laugh at dumbasses.
3. You know who did it before, so you have an accurate record of the user's past violations.
4. Keep the post statistics up.

Whoah, weird. As I read that, Futurama is on the tv right next to me.

Anyway, I was never told NOT to completly delete threads but I know better. The only admins will ever delete threads is if it's spam flooding. Which of course doesn't happen like it used to thanks to the now built-in protection.

But back in the day, larms would spam threads and the board would look like this:

fag!
fag!
fag!
fag!
fag!
fag!

Repeat a bunch of more times. No need to have all those in the trash can.

There's 3 types of threads that could be deleted:

- Useless threads. And I mean useless. (Someone signing up to advertise something, for instance.)
- Threads where the first post was deleted.
- Threads involved in a flood.

Aside from that...

My thread got deleted.

Then again I asked; he originally wanted to just close it.

Nope.

Considering it was a "00" post I was a bit eh after but... oh well

No, because then we'd have to add it to the list of deleted posts up there.
