@farmer2021

Which old threads do you want to delete? Email me at p@patrick.net

When you click the link you get in your email, doesn't that log you in and tell you your new password?

No just log that in.
You should give user ability to delete his threads.

You can delete threads up until they are some age and have some number of comments.

After that point, it would be unfair to the other users to have all their comments just go away.

I think you can simply edit the threads to erase the content of the original post at any time.

@patrick If we ignore someone does this count reflect their comments?

When the Duck left did you just delete his tens of thousands of comments?

The comments in the title are all the comments on the live site. Ignore does not change the count.

The duck's comments are not included on the live site, but I have them backed up.

If someone deletes a post, that does not delete the comments made on that post, but it makes them hard to find. You have to find the user's page, then look through that user's comments. Or you can do a comment search at the bottom of any user's comment list, for example:

https://patrick.net/comments?a=Patrick

If you look at the bottom of that list, there is a search box which searches all comments. I keep it kind of out of the way because it's hard on the database.

I miss the Duck and AFuck. I miss Marcus.

It really sucks when people change and become intolerable.

TDS is a real mental illness.

There should be a DSM page about it.
