| Adding a “safe haven” forum for discussion of tweaks? I’ve said this before, but I’ll throw my suggestion out one more time. I think these issues could be helped if the OP had the power to delete a single post, or all of the posts in a thread by someone. Just a couple of buttons that let each OP deci... | |
