No, she can only delete her own posts. The thread remains unless admin deletes it, and that’s a very rare occurrence. Interesting....I always wondered why people did that. They do it for the drama.

If there are no responses to a thread, I believe that deleting the OP will actually delete the thread, so obviously, you have to change your mind quickly. oh, that’s probably true ... I never thought of it, because usually people delete when they perceive they’re being picked on. Maybe I’ll try a test thread late tonight when the rest of you are sleeping. If I remember to do it, I’ll report back. I just tried it! It does work!

They do it for the drama. Positive it wasn't for the drama. I think she felt that people were essentially telling her she was dumb. The-you don't want to think, you don't want to learn, etc posts to her. While most of us that are on the NSBR board are sort of used to it. A newbie might find it hurtful, picked on, pointed at, and she deleted it to make it go away. It probably pointed out things she didn't realize. I am sure it opened her eyes. She probably wasn't familiar with all the snark, etc on here. I feel bad that she was sort of run off. We need newbies on here to keep the board fresh, and growing.

The OP gives me a different vibe than poor, innocent to pea-snark NSBR newbie. 🤷🏻♀️ Maybe that’s just me. Besides GS is FULL of snark these days. 😅

She was most definitely not a newbie. Joined under that ID 4 years ago. In looking briefly at her post history, she has mainly posted in the scrapbook board, and here under some pet threads, and not very frequently. That would make her a relative newbie. Not like the rest of us old jaded crones on here. LOL

Oooh!! what threads are snarking over on the GS??!! Becky Higgins and Tracey Claiborne are the best for snark. We snark on Ali and SC (and Sleepingbooty posts the best gifs and memes on those) but for pure entertainment read BH and TC.
