        Please do not delete your post because somebody says it's a repost. Plenty of people might have missed the original one, and it's annoying to see deleted posts*. * Unless of course it's something inappropriate.

                                This would be bad since it'd allow the OP to delete other peoples posts as well as their own. The message deleted place holder is to keep the rest of the thread from disrupting adjacent threads (this was a problem beforehand).

                                          I think I need to anonymously leave this in my manager's mailbox. The bigger a project is the more guaranteed it is that we'll have at least two impromptu meetings a day.

                                          Don't blame me. I voted for Chuck Norris.
