Deleted thread

[PeppaPigStinks]

I've asked for a thread to be deleted - how long does it take please?

[Pagwatch]

It will depend on whether they agree to delete it.
They don't delete threads just because you ask.
Why do you want it removed?

[PeppaPigStinks]

Because I posted waaay to much personal information on it! And now I am paranoid! When I google my employment issue it comes up as well- meaning if the issue I had today is googled by all involved it will show in the results!

(Yep- feeling mega crap now)

[PeppaPigStinks]

I understand hq are probably busy! But i am feeling rather anxious about it all now

[AnyFucker]

Have you reported the original post on your thread and explained your fears of someone coming across it ?

[PeppaPigStinks]

I have reported it twice! Third time I think I put too much info in it

[PeppaPigStinks]

I don't think I can report it again.... Can I!?

[AnyFucker]

Yes, course. Have you checked your email address ?

[PeppaPigStinks]

Yes no email yet!

[AnyFucker]

I have read your thread. I don't think there is anything too incriminating in it. You are simply asking a question.

[PeppaPigStinks]

Thank you - but it is clearly me if anyone in work decides to look at it. They have said no (after posting me thread) so I think it will cause a lot of anger if anyone in my work reads it!

[AnyFucker]

Aww. That seems a bit hardline to me. Nobody has exactly invested too much in it, so who would be bothered or inconvenienced by it going ? And you would feel better.

I've hidden it and it's moved to 30 days.
What does hiding a thread do?

(extremely long term lurker, rare post and clearly have just got my fingers burned so will go back to my usual lurking MN addiction )

[AnyFucker]

hiding only hides it from you

[PeppaPigStinks]

Also what will happen if I report the posts?
They have looked at it for me now / still won't delete it (plleeeaaaassee Hq) as it's not too incriminating

[AnyFucker]

"30 days" section means it will be disappear after 30 days

[PeppaPigStinks]

Ah that's no good!

[FenellaFellorick]

The more yyou post this, the more people will as your username and look up your thread.
If it's moved to 30 days it'll go poof then.

[PeppaPigStinks]

Thank you for your help!
I want it to go now- only because work are likely to be googling now!

[FenellaFellorick]

I hope they change their minds for you - or at least shift it to otbt so it's not googleable

[iwashappy]

If I was your employer and I looked at your thread I don't see that you have said anything in it that could get you into trouble. I hope it's resolved for you.
