Hey! So as the title says--is there a way I can delete my blog posts? My two posts thus far are basically crap; just me complaining, misusing the term "griefing", getting flamed, you know.

If so, how? I'd like to ramble about my various hobbies without having the shadow of my previous entries hanging over me =P

On the other hand, I just realized that deleting blog entries wouldn't work very well since people could just delete entries that get low ratings, etc.

='( Consider this crap entry #3 if that's the case.

EDIT: "...deleting blog entries wouldn't work very well..." roflcopter

Staff have done this on occasion so it's not a ridiculous request. You can retroactively delete the OPs but the replies will obviously still remain. I guess staff has to weigh in on this issue.

edit: guess it goes to show how important quality posting is... you can never fully shake a bad history.

Just make sure to replace everything you said with "Puppies are cute, and I love kittens" then all the people who flamed you before look like assholes with their responses

Only mods have such magical powers.

Is that really a legitimate way to do things? Sounds like a good idea, but I'm not sure whether you're kidding haha

I'm intending on making this blog mostly about tennis, since I've decided that the majority of my free time will be relegated to starcraft and tennis. :D

as long as you want Federer to win the French Open your previous blogs will be forgiven.

This would seem like it works hahaha, I usually use my old blogs for when I make huge posts so I test it out there to see how it would look. You could just erase the content like micro said and then use it for something else later.
