Title: Multiple delete in activities section just like that of message section
Post by: Timmzzy on May 03, 2020, 10:18:54 PM
Few features I will like https://bitcointalk.org to include; just like we have the message section where we can delete multiple of messages at a Go! Same action I would have love to see in the activities section let me drop some images for you all to understand what am talking about:

The image in the URL indicates the outlook on (Message page) page and that of (show post page)

Please your opinion is needed on this...
1. If the delete multiple should be introduced to the show post
2. Or if it shouldn't be introduced to the show post page just like that of the message page.

I don't think it is necessary to implement an option to delete multiple posts at a go.
Except one wants to reduce their activity level, I don't see any other use for it. Posts are public, unlike messages and deleting your part of a discussion (without any reason) would leave a gap in it, it could also hint at an account having changed hands and the new user starts to clean up the old user's posts.

There are also some technical barriers to this; ability to delete posts vary in different sections: in some you have to wait for a certain amount of time to be able to, also threads cannot be deleted by the poster. The current system is working fine imo.

It's very likely this topic has ever been discussed before.
Sometime back i noticed the delete button appears in one's post history if they started a topic and made replies in that very topic. The OP's replies in that very topic will have that delete button but the replies to other topics will not have anything.

For example; i started this topic: Secret Question Help link disabled, Why? (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5242794.msg54280403#msg54280403)

The reply i made in that very topic has the delete option in the post history unlike other replies

I am not sure of the significance of it.

That is the reply you made definitely it can be deleted instantly as you (reply) or (quote) any ones post. Now the option am pointing at if you definitely look at those images properly is the aspects where by we go about weekly post in the past like; where we have to post a report of this format:

TWITTER CAMPAIGN

That's for bounties campaign we have run in the past, dont you think this feature should be implemented in other to reduce them. If am not mistaken yes I know once you create a new topic it can't be deleted, which if this features should be implemented it will definitely indicate topics that should or can be deleted and can't be deleted.

It is a nice feature to have especially if you are just deleting those you think are not worth of a post for example you joined on a giveaway on Games & Rounds board like just posting numbers or your username and those bounty posts as well. Since the feature isn't implemented yet I guess it's your due diligence to delete all those unnecessary post you think manually.

It's a bug I saw before, but I only now notice something else: I always thought I could use my own post history (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=459836;sa=account) to quickly delete all posts (using middle-mouse, opening and deleting them in a background tab). I already knew the bug that I would see a Delete button in the post history of anyone who posted in my topics, even when they're not Self-moderated. But I only now found out that Delete button in my post history only appears with my own posts if I made them in my own topic!

That changes the solution a bit, but it's still pretty quick. Timmzzy: open a page in your post history, click each post you want to delete with your middle mouse button (this opens it in the background). When you have 20 open tabs, Ctrl-Tab through them, use your middle-mouse on the delete button, and close the tab (Ctrl-W). This will take only half an hour, which is nothing compared to time you spent spamming bounties (https://archive.is/thDtc).

I appreciate cleaning up your bountry trail :)

No, it is not feasible. Basically, the quick delete feature on your post history is only available for topics created by you. If this quick delete feature is implemented, I think it will be a bit conflicting  :D

He can take months to spam in bounty campaigns, but it only takes a few minutes to clean it up, even a day is good. I also support if he wants to clean his post history. But I wonder is that what he wants?

Since am not making use of computer. Am using a mobile phone which is just the method I applied using my Google chrome browser. But it's way too long having up 20 to 30 tabs open I mean that is the most complicated stressed, which will even mess up every other tabs (getting confused due to open tabs everywhere).

Exactly what am talking about just like that of the reports  we submit for bounty campaigns we run in the past. It's not worth floating around in the activities.

Cleaning up the post history of BOUNTY CAMPAIGNS we have done and other related reply we made: e.g (PROOF OF AUTHENTICATION) in the past is what I really look forward to get rid of, mind you not that we can't delete this post we have made so far but the process getting rid of them all at a Go!. It's likely easy using the computer but not on mobile phone devices.

If it is a difficulty to use the phone, why not use the computer? You know that these tasks can be done easily  on your computer  :D I did not think of any problems that could prevent you from using the computer  ??? What is your problem? You can use any computer anywhere, gaming center is a good example, of course, the cost is very cheap for an hour there. Why did it become such a difficulty? If you really want to clean your article history, it shouldn't be a problem  ::)

I don't think he has a problem, don't quote me wrong his actually making a suggestion of what should be considered implemented in this forum. You don't expect everyone to own a laptop or a computer every fingers ain't equal. And secondly you mentioned him going to cyber cafe I believe you should count the cost in trying to get rid of too many post that are not welcomed.

He obviously has a problem  ::) He presented his problem when using the phone, and I asked him about using computer  8) What do you mean by saying I don't quote you  ??? His suggestions stem from his inconvenience when using the smart phone to access this forum  :) And I asked him to use a computer at Gaming center, how do you understand it is cyber cafe?
