Wipe out deleted messages

I think completely removing deleted messages might make the boards look neater and less clutter.

That might work where the posts are in the middle of a thread. But when the deletions are the first message in the thread, you can still see the rest of the posts, by clicking on the number of posts. If the whole thing was deleted. you'd lose lots of excellent posts.
Nimda might have a solution.

Re: Wipe out deleted messages

I thought about this and didnt want to bring it up.

I think we have two options here.

One is we wipe out the entire thread. Which I think its not a bad option if the original poster wants to wipeout his original thread.

Two we only wipeout just the header and leave the other ones, perphaps for a limited time or if the enough replies after deleted original poster remake the header or leave at the bottom to go to a this new thread to continue.

I think those are the way to go.

Re: Wipe out deleted messages

There's a big, long thread with a lot of discussion about a new theme, and it has Nimda trying out various themes. I think that should be saved for posterity. You might know which one I'm talking about: I complimented you three times on it!

Unfortunately, whoever started that thread deleted their post. So, now it just says "Post deleted" with three pages.

Is there a way to give it a new title?

There should be but the mod hasnt even replied here. Though he hates deleted threads this site looks more and more like an empty board with the words deleted post repeated a hundread times.

I know. It looks weird. Seems to be getting better with time, though.
