I thought it was something like this but gave OP the benefit of the doubt.
@AngryDog ask a moderator to delete your thread or report your own thread and ask for it to be deleted.

Dont commit suicide
Yes I did delete all my posts because few if any of them was well received so i figured rather then having to deal with the constant situation i just defuse it. It is not wrong nor a bad move. Why is it bad to say "right i need to get my point across in a better way lets redo this" Why is it so horrible?

Like I said before, larger platforms allow people the space to delete and edit without penalty why must we be penalized here. The only reason i wrote "deleted" on my posts is because it is the only way to stop the discussion. One would think that "thinking for yourself" should be welcomed but it is clearly not.

But no matter I and a few others decided that other platforms might be a better fit. So we will do that. It is just I thought I would make mybroadband aware that having the ability to truly remove something isn't such a bad thing. It really helps.

so i stand by what i said, if other larger platforms can allow for something as simple as a delete function surely they can as well.
 
See,always 2 sides to a story

@AngryDog if you want to get emo and post and delete ramblings go to www.blogspot.com and start a blog,or use facebook and twitter as you've mentioned. What your endgame here is I honestly can't say
No emo here, just a discussion and a request. but again IF i did see something like your post i normally would delete the entire thing because you wanted to see things in a bad light. That i feel is on you not me.

and to add to that why should people walk on eggs all day long just because someone like yourself want to see it under the worst possible light?

You never "get your point across in a better way" though. You just delete all the content thereby trashing the thread.

If you prefer the policies of a different platform, why not use said platform?

Edit: also, it's not like you edit/delete a few bad posts, you delete every single post.
 
No, his ability to edit posts was disabled in order to prevent situations like these from occurring.


Why would people want to get involved in threads that an OP wants to trash once they have answer they need or gets an answer they don't like?
In each of those posts I had the same trolls following me around. Why was this not taken into consideration? More importantly why does it matter if i deleted it? If it disables a toxic conversation? Again if i could delete the entire thing people wouldn't even have noticed it.

You know I am right about this and I am sticking to my guns on this one. None of this would have been needed if the op had the ability to delete things properly.

When you start a thread it doesn't mean it's actually yours, it belongs to everyone. There could be information, valuable to others, that doesn't deserve to be obliterated simply because a thread didn't evolve the way you hoped it would.

If you want something like twitter or facebook, use twitter or facebook, not a forum.

There is very few local platforms, also I thought since everyone is fighting with providers it would be a good place to mention things.

Secondly I didn't want to trash it, I wanted to remove it completely but don't have the ability. But he solution here is very easy actually. Just ban my account. I am not going to bother making a new one and honestly I will write and continue to write until I don't have access anymore. It is part of my personality I can't stop I don't know how to stop. It is why I am very good at what I do for a living. I have to learn, try work repeat get better get better. That is why I deleted all that stuff. It is like "right time to clear the page figure how to write in a better way" do that see what jumps out and redo it again and again. I cannot and will not stop so admin better stop me then.

to add to this, what I am asking for isn't the sun the moon and all the stars. It is a simple function that many platforms deemed fit to provide to their users. I don't feel it is out of line and I do feel that admin could just as easily deleted the discussions or closed them down but they decided that I should get the brunt of it. That is on them.

0.1% wants the feature, let's move on.
 
The OP habitually creates threads and then burns them by removing all of his interactions within the thread so his ability to edit, not delete, posts was curtailed.

It's clear what he wants is to start threads and then delete them, in their entirety, with no regard to those that have taken the time to engage. But that's not how forums work.

Again my reasoning is, I wrote it I should have the ability to delete it and rewrite it? It is not a big deal but was made into one so here we are.
 
and to add to that why should people walk on eggs all day long just because someone like yourself want to see it under the worst possible light?
Who's walking on eggs? You
I've insulted people,talked ****,gotten warnings,got posts deleted. I stand by what I said
If you don't want notifications for your ramblings you can disable them for the thread - or don't say it simply

That argument might hold if it was one or two posts or a single thread. You've pseudo-deleted ALL your threads

You complain of echo chambers but here you are admitting that you only prefer yes man responses. That's echo chamber behaviour. You lack self awareness.
 
Right so make the request to ban me :):thumbsup:

Or, you can leave of your own accord or simply change your approach by placing people on ignore?

If you have will-power to get an entire forum changed but not enough will-power to change yourself, what is the point?

It's there - you abused it

I don't feel it is out of line
Minority opinion

and I do feel that admin could just as easily deleted the discussions or closed them down but they decided that I should get the brunt of it.
No,you get the brunt because you posted,much like you're getting it now for posting again

That is on them.
It is,in fact,on you
 
Start swearing at us and you'll be banned
I considered that yesterday actually i wanted to use 0 and 3 and $ to spell out the word but I figured if they hate me this much they can do it out of their own free will. I am not going to give them reason.
 
Right so make the request to ban me :):thumbsup:
Shame,more of that inability to take responsibility or ownership for yourself except when it suits you
Delete your account,or don't post. Selfcontrol issues?

I want conversation that is constructive yes... Again when people walk up to you and say things you don't want to hear you don't stick around you walk away and avoid that person in future. It is only human to hope that some will agree and if they disagree that they give a good response as to why. That is why it is called conversation and not a boxing mach.
