How to delete what I already posted.
Hi
I am having trouble with putting my first chapter of "love bump" in writers area so it looks neat in there. I would like to delete the two threads I started if possible or can someone delete those for me. I tried again today to copy and paste from MSworks but it does not look the same as on my PC. Any help will be appreciated,or send me to the right place to ask this question. Thanks ahead of time.

You can PM a mod and they can delete threads.
As for getting your post to look right...did you try previewing your post before submitting it? That may help.

meanwhile, you can at least delete the contents of those posts, by hitting the 'edit' button and wiping them clean...

Near the bottom of the main page, there is a link to View Forum Leaders. Anyone on that list can help you, or get you the help you need.
You can't delete your posts, but you can edit them. Highlight the text of your post, hit your backspace key and it's gone. Then click save.

You need to turn on your computer, also. Make sure they know that.

Yes...after you tried threats, then running whining to the moderators and driving them nuts, then jumping into threads for the sole purpose of insulting me, then posting my profile elsewhere with a bunch of cruel and fallacious remarks about me living in failure and poverty, you send me your "peace offering". Pathetic.
By the way...I just read your mail and replied...this post is yesterday. So your "reject and beat over the head thing" is a lie. Like SO MUCH of your shit here.
Your groveling for respect for you "knowledge of writing" in your mail is absurd. You're not a writer. Again...you want respect, post a screenplay for us to see. You pretend to know about them...let's judge for ourselves.
You don't seem to realize that I don't really give a shit about you personally one way or the other. I object to your nasty actions, to pretending to be what you're not while aggressively trying to influence new writers, and for hijacking discussions off the forum while soliciting email addresses from newbies.
If you don't like it, try this, instead of putting all this attention into damage control....BE the change you wish to see in the world.

Somehow, I doubt that if she did post a screenplay that it would change your attitude towards her. Let's assume that the worst of your accusations are true. They still don't seem very malicious when matched up against your conduct. I'm sorry lin, I still don't see the point to this. Let it go. There are frauds everywhere, and even if she is all you say she is, in this woman I see no harm.
