Question Deleting Function

LOL, as they say.
You learn something new every day. I did not realize that an umpire could wake up in the morning and change one of HIS well thought out postings after a re-read. I think I've seen a lot of situations (little content / lots of accusations) where the authors would have been well advised to do just that (if you think this means you, the reader, it probably does).

If you EDIT your post does it appear as "edited". If you DELETE your post should a message be retained that you have withdrawn it? I don't anticipate a lot of umpires doing this since we have progressed to a kinder gentler Forum and posts are much more well thought out. It might help the sense of the thread when subsequent posts reflect a deleted post. Kind of like the envelope and postmark stays but the letter disappears.Thanks. Jim Simms/NYC
