Mord's Meltdown

There was/is someone at my old forum who had a habit of deleting her poems when she was upset about something. She's a pretty sensitive sort. It could be possible Mord is the sensitive type as well.

Yeah I could understand that but a) who or what pissed him off? He seemed to leave on good terms and b) why not just ask for his journal to be deleted, instead of going through nearly a hundred pages of entries and replacing each one with a dot? The time taken even to highlight an entry, hit return and type in a dot, and then save, god knows how many hundred times, surely does not seem a good way to do it.

It's possible he thought they wouldn't delete his journal. A lot of forums have a policy that they don't delete posts.

Well, I think with a little bit of kindergartner-lite detective work
checking dates and after-leave comments it may be pretty easy
to ascertain the reason(s).
{you can tell that it only took about 90 minutes to erase them}.

Always worth asking.

Would you spend an hour and a half doing that? I wouldn't.
Also: spill if you know, or have guessed. Was it to do with the comments left by Batty and myself?
