I'm very sorry if she tipped off anyone about your cunningly concealed herd of cows.

I can't seem to block myself.

Woohoo!

I can't even.

I can't seem to block myself.

Is that a bug or a feature?

(Somedays ...)

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Phred - Are you recently renamed, or just a decloaked lurker?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Phred lives in Sang Sacre.

Ahh, I see. I should have used my Special Stompy Powers to figure that out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, DX -- been meaning to ask.

I want to put the thread deleting code (where I delete the posts from an archived thread) into the thread maintenance page. So when you click "archive" they all go away. This might require adding a "hide" option, just so there's something a little less drastic.

Will this work for you?

Yes (to Jon). Phred has no Special Stompy Powers, you see, so he's useful for looking at stuff from that point of view.

ita, it's sort of nice having a little safety window between hiding the thread and deleting it, but if you add a "hide" option, it should be fine. Maybe rename the other to "archive and delete," and add an "Are you sure?" dialog.

Okay -- I'll go that way.

Yep. I've done the same trick on the test boards.
