I agree that it would be a shame to have the board admin delete an entire thread because it degenerated into a flame war, but we are here having this resource at the good graces of the owners of the site. It is there house. Let's not track in mud. And if you do track in mud, go to the kitchen, get a paper towel, and wipe it up. After all, you did it. Don't leave it to the host.

But honestly, that little tiff between AB and C1 would not even reach the top 100 list of heated flame wars that has occured on the Baseball board, so I wonder if that was the cause. I'd guess it was more the SPAM. Or maybe the flames broke out again on Baseball.

As to whether a single message in a thread can be deleted, that would depend on the capabilities of the software. For sure, it could be edited to remove the offensive language and the thread locked.
