Delete a post BECAUSE I was helpful?

Just coming here to post about this! The only reason I see for people to delete their posts is if they are ashamed of themselves. Just stand by your posts or don't post at all. Rewriting history is cowardly and makes you look like you don't believe in what you are posting.

It shows maturity and mental stability. Or lack of it. I guess she may be lacking both of them.

Or maybe it is still hormonal ? and proteins and vitamins deficiencies that clearly affect her ability to reason. I sure hope she gets real help before it is too late and she develops some permanent changes in her brain because of her deficiencies.

Ugh, figures. I don't know why people post to public forums when they only want to hear what their thinking in a different voice.

People can't stand by what they say. I once posted something that some people thought could be hurtful - but rather than deleting it, I posted and exclamation and apology.

But to delete a post just because it isn't something you want to hear - then why bother posting? Apparently, all you want to hear is "Aw, too bad" or "You're so inspiring"........ That doesn't always happen in the world of open forums.

What kills me is that not only did she apparently delete two of her own posts, but she has deleted about half of her responses on her own post complaining about the responses she got on one of the deleted posts!

(Confused yet, LOL?!?)

Seriously? Annoying as... well, you know...

Not sure whether you saw it, but in a response to me she indicated that she deleted those posts because she blocked the people they were in response to and then she thought that HER posts were just hanging out there with no context and would be confusing... and didn't know that her blocking someone only prevented HER from seeing their posts and that everyone else can still see them.

Sounds like a great new feature that we should ask OH for... A universal block button: I block someone and then NO one can see their posts, LOL. Let's see... Who would be the first to go...?!?
