In case I suddenly want to delete all of my posts, would this be possible?

You would have to ask the moderators, but the chances are that they might not let you do it.

That actually did happen to me but it was a fluke thing because it wasn't supposed to happen so she was fired for it. I honestly don't know why it happened. All I know is I pissed her off when I had a disagreement with her in PM.


No offence, League_Girl and nothing personal, but don't you think it's time to let go? Even if you were deliberately mistreated, the person responsible was punished for it and you've already done your share of whining and name-calling. Some of us are tired of this drama, can we move on please?

Actually I have and I was making a joke because the OP was wondering if all his posts can be deleted. So I told him he may be lucky by pissing off one of the mods they decide to delete his account and bam he got what he wanted. All his posts are gone. Then I explained where the joke came from in case he didn't get it or anyone else who reads it.

I do recall an issue with deleted posts, but, I don't recall ALL of anyone's posts being deleted. (And banning itself does not cause posts to be deleted, as you imply.)

I didn't imply it. If you do a search on likedcalico or Spokane_Girl you will see no such profiles exist and all you will find is the quotes in users posts. Banning someone doesn't erase their posts, removing their account does. But at some places it doesn't remove their posts, their posts just turn into guest. But here, all of them go.

Deleting posts on a large scale really screws up the data base
