Should we have the ability to close our own threads?

It would be nice to be able to give notice BUT there are times when you can feel the intelligence just draining out of your system by having the damn thing left open. For the sake of the community.......CLOSE THAT THREAD!

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

just thought i would weigh in...

i dont think it is a good idea, because people could just run the boards then...imagine how many people would post and delete and then all the ones who would abuse this....

frankly, the idea of members being able to moderate themselves is scary...i know not all would abuse this, but some would, and in this case, one bad apple would spoil the whole bunch.....

meh....im sorry....

princess

If I had the ability to close threads I would of closed this one down before CC even thought of it:wtf::rastasmoke:

Princess i never said delete i just said close, therefor no one would lose any posts or rep at all.

Also I dont see why people would abuse it.. Why would a bunch of people start threads and then close them unless their noobs but they can easily abuse the site by spamming and starting threads so why not closing them it just makes it better really.

Some times people make mistakes and upload things they realize later on they don't want on the internet, like a few pictures of my face that can still be found. If admins don't feel like deleting them I sure would if I had the ability to.

you should have done like I did, Orangeman ... posted a 25 year-old pic of when I was young and handsome (instead of old, overweight, and decrepit) ... :D

Yeah but if orangeman did that it would be a baby pic lol.

Haha yeah

I think I got a pic of OM on my PC,,,should I delete it???

We should be able to close a thread but only for a fee, say $2500 per thread, payable to me!

Well... i think after somebody else posts in a thread started by you, the thread is not more only "your", because it haves the opinions/comments of another person too.
As i think nobody haves a "greater" opinion than anybody, if there is a thread with, lets say, 20 replies, then all the 20 persons that posted in that thread are "owners", in a certain way, of it. Or, lets say, have the same "weight" in that thread.
Thats why i think nobody (even the thread starter) should be able to close threads. Only if it were with agreement of everybody that posted, what would be difficult.
