This site and forum has been a breath of fresh air and become an online home for me.  I find myself spending less time on other forums wasting the precious free time I have.  It's too bad someone abused the trust of their community on another site.  

I appreciate a forum moderated and populated by decent, interesting people.  

Thanks KVR, and everyone else who banters back and forth. 

peace

For the record, if anyone wants their account deleted here, every post will be removed. I don't agree with Carbons or the writers stance on that. It's your property, not mine.

Thanks for the heads up. It's true, I signed up there around the same time as joining here, but I've not been active, not even to lurk and read. I only made 2 posts total, and I've not logged in or used the forum at all since. It wasn't a good fit. Also, you had warned me about some bad experiences. I looked, and saw red flags. It was enough reason to not return.

While you may not agree with the article's author about deleting posts, he is correct that mass deletions can be highly disruptive to a forum. Your respect of people's content as their own is certainly the right idea, but I think that there is also a greater good of the community to be considered. I think its the sort of thing to not make any blanket decision on but rather hope it is never necessary and to weigh your options carefully and as appropriate to the individual circumstances should you ever find yourself faced with such a thing.

That said, I hope you never find yourself in such a position. You certainly work very hard at making this place what it is.
