Deleting Posts

Ok, so I am burned out on the center camp thread, and wish to remove all my comments. Any ideas on how?

Although I understand the impulse, I wouldn't. It would just be confusing for those of us who are rubbernecking that thread -- reading responses to posts that no longer exist, et cetera.

I'd just suck it up. Before too long it'll drop off the bottom of the screen anyway, and we'll all have gone on to other squabbles.

I didn't ask if you would or wouldn't, but thanks for the advice. I am seeking information to delete the posts only.

And I'm saying that deleting the posts is a bad idea, owing to it fucking up the continuity of the thread.

"I wouldn't do that" is an idiomatic expression indicating that advice is being given, NOT an indication that "what would you do" had been asked.

I know you didn't ask me what I would do. Sheesh.

Hey..I have an idea. You seem so into sharing, and welcoming of other folks thoughts and opinions, I'll give ya some help.

And I'll even spell it out for you.

Read the fucking "frequently asked questions"

or if that's too difficult, here's the link

or in the burner spirit, let me hand it to you on a plate

How do I edit or delete a post?
Unless you are the board admin or forum moderator you can only edit or delete your own posts. You can edit a post (sometimes for only a limited time after it was made) by clicking the edit button for the relevant post. If someone has already replied to the post, you will find a small piece of text output below the post when you return to the topic that lists the number of times you edited it. This will only appear if no one has replied; it also will not appear if moderators or administrators edit the post (they should leave a message saying what they altered and why). Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied

glad your here to share the music with me. or try to erase what you said when you don't like it anymore

Shit....I forgot a happy face.

Don't need people thinking I'm mad or something. I always have a smile on my face when I'm on here

I'm a bastion of love and compassion for lazy folks that don't try to look for their own answers

ok...is it all better now

all of your posts have an X in a box top left side of the post. this allowes you to delete them.

Excuse the fuck out of me, but I did search for the answers, then I checked here. As for you being holier than thou, get off on your own sarcasm for the plank in your eye exists in a time when I see clear skies, and all you do is for thirst for the blood that you think is others but is only your own.
