Deleting posts, (threads/replies)

There are two types of groups on DS. I call 'em DS groups and MEMBER GROUPS. MEMBER groups are 'private' groups created by DS members. They have a founder who can appoint administrators for the group. These groups are ENTIRELY managed by the founder and admins. These people manage their groups and can remove posts within the group, ban members of the group among other things.

DS groups are administered by DS. CLs 'help' DS do that. The ONLY thing a CL can do is close a thread for cause. If you START a thread and want it removed, you must request it through a feedback form. IF YOU WANT IT CLOSED, PM a CL.

It is not likely you can get someone else's thread closed .. but feel free to PM a CL if you think it needs to be closed for any reason. Feel free to PM a CL for anything you wish to inform them of ... harrassment, personal info posted publicly, threats, etc etc. CLs have more 'direct' lines to DS Administration. CLs must have 'proof' of an infraction in order to proceed with action.

It is confusing but the point is, PM a CL for ANY reason and feel free to submit a feedback form for any reason ... between the TWO, DS manages to remain civil.

    In addition to a FEEDBACK FORM, there is an ABUSE FORM as well. PROBABLY, abuse forms are most effective when you have or see a problem on DS.

    How best to use these resources (abuse form, feedback form, PM a CL, etc) is hard to describe. There are too many possible scenarios to define each one's best use. That being the case, feel free to use any, some, or ALL to notify DS of a problem.

    Anything is better than inflaming a problem by revealing it, criticizing it, complaining about it, or 'combatting' it publicly. That, inevitably makes a problem worse.

    If you want your own thread closed (one you started), make sure to put the EXACT title of it in your request to a CL to close. We do not want to close the wrong thread. Be as specific and descriptive as possible. A link to the thread makes it really easy for us to get it closed quickly.
