Can you delete your discussion?

I'm just wondering, is there a possibility do delete a discussion you created? If yes, how? If not, why?

I don't think you can, but if you request for a mod to do it, we can.

Reply to StreetlightX Yes, I think it would be a good option.

Yes, although if its already garnered good quality replies, we may not. Depends on the content.

Reply to Baden So, only administrators can do that?

It's easy to delete your discussion. Just start filling it full of crap. The mods will handle the rest. :-)

Also, if you're in a hurry and need to move things along, I find that being an insufferable zit can speed the process up. :-)

Why would you want to delete your account? If it is because you don't want to come here any more then just don't come. If it is so that you cannot come here when you want to, then it useless because you will just make a new account.

People that want their accounts deleted are mostly drama queens that think someone will try to talk them out of it. Good look with that.

I am wondering why you want to delete what you have said. It seems like ripping up diaries and notebooks.

I am sure that I have written plenty of inadequacies replies especially if I am in a dark place. Eventually any strands written recede into the background and if you stop writing your identity will fade into the background anyway.

But I am wondering why you are so afraid of what you might have said. I would be more afraid if someone wanted to delete my parts of a thread. It would seem like an ultimate rejection and as if I had been deleted from the book of life. I would feel that my own philosophy quest was a failure. Perhaps that is catastrophic think and I need a course in CBT.
