I'm not sure I understand the question. Messages can only be deleted by the person who wrote them, or by GR. If you mean, why are people spending all their time complaining... well there's an interesting question, and I don't have an answer. I have in the past complained about a few posts that I found objectionable, generally when someone was being abusive toward another member of the board.. Sometimes they've been removed, sometimes they haven't. I've also been told by GR in teh past that they have removed individual posts that were unpleasant, rather than the whole thread, but I know its more common that the whole thread goes.

Good question Pat! I find it quite odd that just that part seems to keep disappearing. Thought they would have deleted the whole thing

hiya Pat I dunno about everyone else but I do it so my list of 'my threads only' isn't so long. I keep interesting ones I may want to read again, or ones that people may re-read one day. I delete answers to quizzes etc. I think it's a kind of neat-freak OCD thing for me. ;-))) xx Jen

Can you please explain to me WHY people feel they should be sitting at their computers deleting answers to other peoples threads? What is the point? or am I missing something really important here? Pat x
