Jacob,

Unless I am mistaken, the new, upgraded BPL Forum no longer has the ability to allow user’s to delete their posts.

Unfortunately, I can’t help but think that I might have been, at least in part, the inspiration for this new “feature”. Since, I have caused, on more than one occasion, some damage to a Thread’s continuity by doing some not so artful deletions.

Even b/f the apparent (am I mistaken here?) elimination of the “Delete” functionality from the “Edit/Print” list, I had been duly “spanked”, and rightly so I might add, by a two or three of the regular poster’s to these forums whose opinion’s I happen to value – and still do value.

Here’s what appears to be the only option left in the event of “dbl-posting” – simply delete the contents of your post, leaving a small statement to that effect since empty posts are not allowed even if it’s an accidental dbl-post [hmmm…..wonder how I discovered that little tidbit??? ;) ]

Another alternative is to email the BPL staff to delete the dbl-post or empty Thread. Benjamin Tang first started doing this, if I recall correctly, and he led me to do the same a couple of months back.

My question is, since I replied to you in this Thread…

is this Thread still considered an “Empty Thread”???

Paul,

Yes, this is an empty thread. As such, it contains no posts, no meaningful exchange of ideas, values or customs cherished by those living in a free and just democracy such as ours…I’m sorry. I just found out that Team MLD doesn’t exist and I’ve fallen into a depression so deep that I’ve taken to talking to empty threads…I have to go now. Nurse Ratchet is looking for me.

If Jacob also agrees, go ahead & trash the thread .

Yeah get rid of it. My “double click” happy finger is the cause of this thing in the first place. sigh…

I saw Nurse Ratchet on the PCT in central Oregen last Summer. Still chasing the Cheif…
