Anneaaquith - A Mod is able to remove posts from a thread on which they are active, but they are not allowed to remove posts that either refer to them directly, or posts that are in response to something the Mod has posted.
Thus, I was not able to delete one of Nailit's less complimentary observations aimed specifically at me.
I am entitled to use the Report facility to advise the Ed and team of a
Site Rules breach, which I did.
Another Mod removed the post shortly afterwards.
Contrary to continued comments to the contrary, I have never deleted posts that are aimed at me personally, and I have never deleted any post simply because I do not agree with it, or because I have issues with the poster.
I moderate according to
Site Rules, always have, always will
