    Won't help if anyone has quoted your post, of course ...

  • Hi

    You can remove posts yourself if you wish but we don't do it wholesale as it disrupts threads.

    For what it's worth I think that if the OP is getting abuse in her daily life due to the posts she has made here, MSE could make a little more effort to help her out than to simply say 'we don't do that'.

    This is a real person whose colleagues are essentially bullying her by all laughing at the posts she has made on this forum. Never mind 'disrupting the forum', a few old threads becoming a little disjointed because some posts a missing or the conversation not flowing as it should seems like a small price to pay.

    Have some heart and help her out.
    :cool:

    If the posts have already been copied and pasted into emails, there's little MSE can do now about it, even if they wanted to.

    That's essentially bullying and harassment in the workplace and should be treated as such.

    So what if I want to cancel my account? Do I have to get myself banned? Because I can do that.
