Deleting an entire thread started by someone......

  1. 1. Deleting an entire thread started by someone......

    • Should LBT remain the same... that the thread starter has the ability to delete their thread for an ungiven amount of time? (Its their thread - they can do with it as they please.)

    • Once a thread is created, the starter is only able to delete their post - and not the entire thread.

    • The starter has the ability to delete the enire thread in a certain time frame.

I voted. The only issue that might come up is if someone quotes the thread starter. In that case a private PM to them to remove the quote would be in order.

This is a great poll, and hopefully can be useful to the admin in making their decision. I voted.

I voted....I hope this poll is taken into consideration in the final decision of the owner & moderators. Isn't it great to have a place where members can have their voices heard? I love LBT!!

I think when I changed my name it was changed on everything I previously posted... am I right on that? If that's the case then anyone who wanted to delete a post (or thread) for privacy sake could achieve this by simply changing their name.

I think it would be fine the way it was. or w/out the delete button after say 30 min. then only editing there on out. w/ the option you can ask a mod to delete if you were 100% you want it gone.

And the name changing is very smart idea..Most may not know its even an option.

I think we should keep the thread, but someone can remove their post. I agree that we'd need to figger something out for if a post is quoted, but if it doesn't happen very often, maybe our wonderful mods could just edit the quote also or something?

I don't think that the individual who started the thread should have the right to delete the entire thread once other people have committed their time and attention to it by posting on it and/or simply voting in a poll. I do think that we should all retain the right to delete our own posts, however.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
