Deleting post from post history (Multi-Deletion) !!!

[Muhammed Zakir]

Hello! Please implement an option to delete posts from post history. It would be much easier for users to delete posts, if they want to delete many posts at once. Suggestions would be helpful!

Why would you want to delete posts from posts history?

Confused about this as well. What is the purpose? How is it different from deleting an individual's posts?

Mainly, its not for me, I suggested in behalf of another user. Anyway, that doesn't matter. You will have to go through each thread if you delete posts individually but if an option to delete posts from history it would be much more easier. Some users like to delete their posts, so this would be a good option. Just suggested!

Ok I get it
You mean deleting posts in a way that easily allows multi deletion
I thought you wanted to mess with the histories of posts that the forum will keep for each post

Noted, thanks for clearing that up jackjack! Multi-deletion should be no problem.

Posts should not be able to be deleted.
Editing should only be 'available' in a 24h timeframe with an exception for the topicstarter.

Especially in the speculation forum you have people deleting their posts because of wrong predictions/bets etc.
Pathetic.

Wait for the ban... If you make mistakes by posting an Off-Topic and you can't delete it , then you will be banned. Recoverung deleted posts isn't a hard one. If there is a valid reason theymos will do it and BadBear(if he can, can he?). But I haven't seen such thing. Editing the post in 24 Hrs frame would be a worst idea. Like I said, if you make mistakes, it will be hard. And, eople are complaining about the post interval, if this is also implemented, they will start migrating to new forum.

Note: No offense from my side. These are just my opinions.

That's an interesting point; maybe they could customize so that posts may not be modified in the gambling forum where people are placing bets? Not sure if this is doable or not, though, but I know that it can be made possible to delete multiple posts on a forum.

Multiple post is available here but in a different way than I suggested. User should go to the thread and select posts he want to delete and then click delete selected but it is only possible if the posts are in same page. It won't always happen. So the easiest way is to make that option in summary.
