Is there a way to delete an answer on Fluther?

Asked by tups (6737points) July 12th, 2012

If you have made an answer that you regret, is there simply nothing to do about it?

If it breaks Fluther guidelines you can flag it, give your reason, and a moderator may remove it. If it doesn’t break Fluther guidelines it most likely will not be removed unless you can come up with a very good reason as to why it’s essential for it to be removed.

@downtide is right. You can certainly raise your concerns with @augustlan who may decide you have a valid reason for wanting something removed. There are no guarantees though.

If you’re still withing the editing period, you can remove the content yourself.

So, if you want to make your case for removal, contact Augie or a moderator.

Why would anyone refuse to remove an answer for a person? Why must it be a “good” reason? Isn’t the fact that I, for whatever reason, want MY answer removed sufficient? Would is accomplished by denying my request?

This hasn’t happened to me, I am just curious.

@rooeytoo Because it often affects the whole discussion that comes after it.
