... To leave the title up, allowing people to still click it, but blank out the posts or make them inaccessible, and have a MNHQ message saying that the thread has been deleted because of a, b, or c reason.
I've been typing a reply on a thread and when I hit "post" it brings up a thread deletion message before the whole thing disappears forever. This made me wonder if a permanent message may be possible?
It might stop people making taat to try and find out where it's all gone.
