Allow useres to hard delete their own posts
I can't figure this out. I want to allow regular users to hard delete their own posts, but it seems to be impossible.

In the Regular Users User Group Where it says Allow Users to delete there posts Click Yes

that does not enable hard delete. only soft delete.

This is a bad idea! I've had situations where people start a thread, and other people respond to it, and the thread starter changes the original post, making it appear to be a different topic altogether.
Example: Thread starter starts a thread called "weather" and asks if the weather is good today. Everyone replies "yes, it's great. I love it". Thread starter changes the thread title to "some weird sex act" and the first post to inquire about some weird sex act he feels the need to share with everyone else. It can turn ugly and make quite a few people angry! The deletion and post editing defaults are the way they are for a reason |

That has absolutely nothing to do with deleting posts.

Actually, that reason was only about editing. Full deleting is bad because someone can just delete the first post or so of a 2000 post topic they made and lose every single person's posts within the topic. Or possibly delete posts to make someone look like they're insane and talking to themselves.

he's obviously not interested in advice from those of us who know and who have been there before

actually, this is possible with a simple tweak of the actual deletion process... would be easy to have a switch on permission, to switch to hard-delete instead of soft-delete when permitted... we just need someone interested to code the hack... not someone who wants to share parts of his life. |
