I don't mean to be disrespectful here PIF but if this thread was intended to be on your forum then that is where it would be. Believe it or not I don't like the fact that the thread got deleted either but that is the right of the poster on PT. Making suggestions for changes is fine but I felt like you kept pushing it.
I run the same software and that is why amendments I make to my site can also be made to this site. I am being pragmatic and offering a solution to a problem, which upset several people.

I have also PM Karen with the actual settings to be altered to only allow people to delete their own posts not the entire thread. Karen & Paul are thinking about applying this amendment, I hope they do.

As far as the smiley face making the comment a joke, it could still be taken as a nasty joke and caused hurt feelings. Yes, I know that Chrangharris caused hurt feelings too but the difference for me is that I don't think she did it intentionally while you meant to hit a slammer home. (note smiley face )
You are entitled to think what you want but you are wrong it was a joke...I found the situation very very funny.

If you want to read bad into my posts that is up to you but as they are my posts I know how they were intended. If wrote a joke and said it was a joke it is a joke no matter what you think.
