The Art Of The Double Post: A Public Service Anouncement

Post by Self »

Dear non-repentant double-clickers,

This version of RM has a delete post function. If your post is the last in a given thread, you can most assuredly delete it. There is an "x" radio button that appears somewhere around the "report post" radio button. Some posters are more familiar with the "report post" function than others. If you need assistance in locating said feature, please private message malice. She can show you where it is. Once you have that down, you will be more than prepared to find the delete post function. If you've often thought your post was so good that you clicked twice with blissful, ignorant glee, this function is for you. I also find it useful for late night posts that are still the last in a given thread when I wake in the morning.

Thanks,
Self.

I thought it'd be a better way to prove that this is a serious thread.

If you want to get any hotter with that nerd talk, try it in ASCII.

Self will never know, but I used the delete function earlier in the Let's Take Quotes Out of Context thread.

Bump for the recent rash of undeleted deletable posts lately.
