I think it would be a great idea to make it where when a Mod deleted a post or moved it to the correct form, the post was actually erased from the forum it shouldn't have been in.

For example: In the Underground there are always loads of halo 2 posts and quite often when I drop by there are more deleted/ended/moved posts than active on forum topic posts. Why not make these post go away compleatly, instead of having all those posts with the red "no" sign next to them.

This way there would only be on happy on topic forms left and there would be merry making among the rifraff.

I don't know how involved this would be but I think it is a good idea. This way I could stop going through the last three pages just to find a post in the undergroud about an oldschool game...

The locked posts remain there as a warning: Don't do what this person did.

We can choose whether or not to leave a marker when moving posts. However, it's generally better to leave a marker to avoid any "where's my post" posts.

We can also delete posts should we choose to. However, sometimes it's more useful to lock than delete.

I'm not that active, but never dead.

I assume that you're using Windows? Try a Mac.
