Deleting

I think that people who post, should be able to delete the post, and all replies even if someone has replied. That way, if someone multi-posted by accident, or didn't make much sense, people could tell them to fix their post, and it wouldn't be stuck there!

Of course this has a down-side, posts that others might want to search for to learn from may be deleted. But you guys are so smart I am sure you will think of something!

Anyway, just a suggestion, that's all!

That isn't a good idea. That opens more doors for people to have flame wars, then quickly delete.

Also all you need to do to delete multi-replied posts is delete the replys, then the post.

And the disadvantage to having quickly deleted flame wars is?

The point is that people who constantly start flame wars should have more punishment than just having to delete their posts after 2 hours.

Meaning, they find it ok to start a flame war because they know they can just delete it if they don't win the flame war or delete it before a mod sees it. Keeping deleting like that off is keeping alot of flame wars from the forums.
