None of the 'nukes' I would be requesting would be for the reasons you
mention.
The need to cancel posts in respect of the old posts I was unsure
about was:
- defunct projects that went nowehere
- Ideas, which are like those others posted.
(and in some case like those TLG have released indepdently,
subsquently to the posts concerned.)
- Removal of content which is out of date...
If these don't meet Lugnet's removal criteria then they do not
meet the removal criteria, end of story...
(An option to cancel your own posts from an active account already exists,
the issue is to do with dormant/dead accounts.)
