Again, I can accept that this is an unintended consequence of the the delete feature, but I don't have a problem with it.

Why should a thread starter have this privilege when someone who replies doesn't?
I'm poster number 3 in a thread and I quote the second poster in the thread. Poster number 2 has no ability to make anything but his post go away -- not the quote or the reply. Why would you argue that the thread starter should have special privileges?
