Howdy,

I've configured the boards to allow people to delete posts from their own topics.

I've done this in the hopes that it will cut down on the complaints I receive about people's topics being spammed with unwanted noise. (Like Sh4k3sp34r said, "A cornholio by any other name...")

I've turned it on globally for now, just to see how it goes...

Posts you delete are now automatically moved into "Reform School", a child board of Entropy Pool !

Excelsior,

YAY!

I think there should be some kind of system that automatically moves any thread that omega and banes both post on to the entropy pool.

We're keepin ya pretty busy movin' threads ain't we?

BUG FIX: If you tried to delete a post from one of your topics and got an error message about "can't delete just any post", this should now be fixed.

Was a bug in the forums software - but thanks to its being open source, it was possible for me to fix it.

Also: Posts you delete are now automatically moved into the Entropy Pool !

Each deleted post becomes its own independent topic in the 'Pool, owned by whoever wrote the deleted post.

Regards,

This is another great enhancement to the forums. Way to go.

I haven't tested this yet, but I believe a post that is already on an entropy pool thread, if deleted, will simply vanish into the ether.

I would only delete some seriously obscene, or spammy stuff.Not any negative opinions about me or others.Whats the point of having a thread if you cant see how stupid some people can get.

A small change: Due to complaints that Entropy Pool was becoming cluttered with deleted posts, I've added a child board of Entropy Pool called Reform School. When you delete a post you are now sending it to Reform School. :-P
