A forum for mental health

A moderator that doesn't cut the mustard

A forum of people so distressed that they leave because they used up all 5 posts deletion. Shame.

Because people just want to be/feel safe.

They don't want to give us more because they are (and my final conclusion) sadists.

So. Will that be a one way ticket to ban land or a warning
If people are so distressed about putting things out there, they can deactivate their accounts, and start a new one to regain anonymity.

But frankly, when you come here you know the rules. And you know what you can and can't do or what can and can't be done. I don't see a mass exodus of people because they can't delete old posts.

It has nothing to do with sadists. There are a limited number of volunteers and I'd certainly rather they be dealing with the disputes and bullies and trolls that get on the forum rather than deleting hundreds of old posts. As we have mentioned, there are other ways to remove yourself from a post. Additionally, if you found you accidentally gave identifying information in a post, you could ask them to edit the post rather than delete it. Someone actually did this on my behalf once because I accidentally mentioned where I work.

All the moderators and admins I have encountered here have been completely professional. I don't always agree with their decisions, but they've been objective and professional about it.

I'm sorry that your experience here has not lived up to your expectation. It is what it is though. There are limitations and there are rules.
