[wp-forums] hm2k - Wants special treatment

[Mika A Epstein]

I always felt it's more along the lines of how they ask. Most people I've see who ask for a post to be deleted link to it and ask nicely.  This guy's just doesn't want to do any of the work.

If he keeps asking, I suppose we could be 'mean' and delete ALL his posts except the ones in the topic. But that's work we don't need to do for someone who realized, years later, he didn't want to be associated with something.
