Rule breaking mostly. Like the example you gave about someone being attacked.

Was there rule breaking anywhere in the thread? I haven't been on in a while... Hurricane and all... So I haven't read it. But from this post it looks to me like the reasoning for wanting it archived is simply bc it's not getting much traffic.
Yeah not exactly. It was more me sharing it, but I didn't want to have it up permanently, as I wasn't planning on keeping it here. I think what I'll do if I want to share something like that again, I will post it as a link like postimage, then simply take it down externally. That way I don't need to ask.

Lately though I have not asked to have threads taken down, as I know it gets redundant. It was more a thing I didn't think through. Thank you Noc, Amethyst, and Cayrios.

Overall I'll be more aware of what I decide to post, yes. :) Again, my apologies.
From what I understand, the reason members aren't able to delete their own threads is because there were issues with members harassing/slandering other members in the forums & deleting the threads after, making it difficult to sort out what was going on, or what was actually said.

Pretty much yeah. But I'm not slandering other members and whatnot. May just end up causing trouble for myself. Sigh. Things haven't been too great IRL today. Anyways.

Cheers, :hug:

I wasn't implying that you were. I was just mentioning why we don't have the option of deleting our own threads. We would still have that option if certain people would have just had the decency to interact respectfully and honestly with others on the forums, but that unfortunately wasn't the case. It's a shame when the actions of a select few ruin something for everyone else. The chat feature on ParaEcho was taken down for similar reasons, which was something I found rather disappointing. 1hd

Yep no worries; wasn't saying you were, my apologies for the mangled statement. :(
And yes that makes sense, it's unfortunate, but yeah, what can ya do. Maybe things will improve eventually.

Ah I didn't realize there was a chat feature on PE. Hm.

Take care Shadows, I hope you are having a good day. Best wishes.

Cheers

Uhm. Just asking again, but is it alright that the other thread be removed, or is that decided that it's not? Just a bit confused here, my apologies
