I like it. Many people don't know they can delete their posts.

...or update thread titles

...or make clean edits for 10 minutes.

And if that person quotes it, it lives on. Same with edits. Say something stupid (or spell something wrong) go back and correct it, it's fine in your original post but someone else may have already captured it in it's original form.

Yep! And the more you are quoted the more material people have to hold over you.

Just in case we have misunderstood the title;
1) Grasp post
2)Wiggle it back and forth
3) Pull up
4) Have a beer
5) Repeat until all posts are deleted

That's one bitch of a job. Just like a swallowed hook.

I have done it and it is NOT a task I would do with a toddler wandering around beside me. Those things can come out fast and without any form of control.

That was the first thing that came to my mind as well. "OMG, NO!"
