Convince me to work thread

I get sent updates on threads so have the final posting by gottagofast2 should anyone want to know why the thread was pulled.

However I think deleting the thread isn't helpful to future browsers - maybe it was entirely a wind-up but that doesn't mean the advice contained wasn't worthwhile. Why not just close the thread and delete the one offending post?

A lot of us (well not me) took time and trouble to post well thought out replies, and to delete the entire thread is disrespectful to those users.

    Yep, I was composing my answer just as the OP was having a bossy fit. They should just delete the offending post.

    One of the OP's responses was vile language which I reported earlier today.
    Whatever your view point responding to a post with F...... C... isn't acceptable.

  • The OP has now been banned from the forum, and all their posts have been deleted. This will have had the effect of deleting any thread they started. I don't know whether the forum team would have deleted the thread anyway.
