Button to delete topics

Posted 2023-03-12 02:40:13
My Support comes with a sliiiight alteration to the idea.

Rather than "Delete" your own topics, I want to see "Archive".

Archiving your topic means no more replies can be made to it, and old archived topics shouldn't be displayed in the forum when you're just browsing.

But they would still come up in Search. Sometimes a topic is just a question and once its answered, it doesn't need to be 'open' for more people to answer; but other people with the same question should be able to find it.

Definitely would like to add least be able to flag something for deletion - I have a bunch of dead studs whose topics are cluttering my activity tab for Chatter.

Seriously support. I have a few now-pointless threads, ones that I just want gone, since they're nothing more than clutter.
I do NOT support the 'only if there's no replies' suggestion, however- like others have stated, it seems counterintuitive.

Love the above suggestion of archiving threads by Cherry #114455, plus the idea of flagging for deletion. I think it would be perfect if both those options were available.

Support for a "flag for deletion" button, but nothing else.

Less coding would be required (compared to archiving or having an alternate setup for mods), and other problems (e.g. players trying to hide wrongdoings) would be avoided. A "flag for deletion" button is also much more user-friendly than modboxing for deletion, which I wasn't even aware I could do.

How it would work:
* A "Flag for Deletion" button next to "Bump Thread" that is only available to the original poster (OP)
* A highlighted message is automatically sent in the forum that the OP has marked the post for deletion
* Mods come in, check the post, and delete
