Post & thread deletion

[dstnyisurs]

I know VT doesn't generally delete accounts, but can at least all of my posts, or at least all of the threads I've made be deleted. They are all pretty old, and I'd like for them not to be there. I've edited most of them to say, instead of "blah blah blah cutting self harm blah depression blah teen angst" to say simply "Delete. " but it would be great if there was a way all of my posts could just be deleted.

Pleasseeee?

Report button, OP requesting delete...

that would work, but there are a lot of them, aren't there? that would be painful to report every single one

Exactly, Jess.
I don't know how this program/code/whatever works for this site, but I know for other forum websites they can easily delete all of the posts for a particular person, which comes in handy when someone wants to erase their history on the website, or not have that stuff come up on a search engine for a commonly used username.
I don't want my dad to search "dstnyisurs" and come up with forums about how I want to slash my wrists, and thinking back on it I shouldn't have used the username I commonly use.
A lot of these posts are old and forgotten about, but still show up on search, and I'd like them to just be gone, all of them.

Change your username. That'll cover your tracks.

it doesnt change in the archives though... does it?

I can have a look if there's an easy way around it later, unless an admin beats me to it. I don't think the posts you've made could go cause of gaps and things, but certainly the threads should be okay to go. I'll see what I can do later.

Tbh you'd have the same problem with this as you would if the OP could delete things themselves. Big gaps in threads, sometimes misuse etc. But yeah, it can happen you just report one of your posts asking for them all to be deleted or pm a global mod or admin and we'll dispose of them for you.

As for posts coming up with your user name have you tried changing and keeping your user name a secret? Or tbh just keep yourself anonymous. Don't put anything up that could attach you to the profile and for all anyone could see you're completely different people. Its worked for me mostly so far.
