I was just thinking, if you make a post and you don't want it anymore or it was something stupid or a double topic or something like that, you should be able delete that post. But then, you couldn't delete the post after it had at least one reply. Something like that.

Thats how it is if regular users are allowed to delete their own posts on PhpBB forums. I don't see why it's not implemented here, It would probobly be useful.

True, but atleast it leaves a trace of what happened.

| Generally changing the topic to "duplicate please lock/delete" will get the job done. |

Or reports you to the IRS and the INS and has your family deported because they're all a bunch of refugee losers from France. |
You're right. That works great.

I love you.
Anyway, the original poster's idea was that you couldn't delete your post once it'd been replied to. That way the only way you could go back and delete a flame is if no one had responded to it yet.

Wow, changing quotes is always the mature thing to do.
You know exactly what I meant though.

And accordingly, you know what *I* meant. 
If someone's busy trying to cover his tracks, the "evidence" isn't very reliable from either point of view.
