That's not how it works - Moderators edit posts because they do not comply with the forum rules, not just because the poster regrets their statements.
In fact, a limit was placed on the the amount of time you have to edit your post, because of situations exactly like this, in which posters made claims, and then went back and deleted them all, when it became clear that public opinion was against them.
FYI: You aren't doing your credibility on TUG any good here...
DeniseM:
This secret document of mine, which does exist, and I am not sharing, seems to have taken a life of its own, even when I have posted other public information which says the same thing.
In other bulletin boards, such as job hunting bbs, it is quite common to say that one has access to information that will not be uploaded, and to give only parts of it, for the benefit of those reading the posts, and it is to up to individuals reading the posts to make up their own mind as to the truth in it. No mods are questioning the veracity of what is said. I thought this forum was similar to that, but I was wrong.
From now on, I'll just use already public documents, and make no reference to private information I may have.
I have no desire to retract anything I've said, both because it is the truth and needed to be said.
But the fact is that people, such as yourself, keep asking me to upload a document which I've said multiple times i'm not going to upload.
This is simply a detraction, kinda like saying that the bearer of bad news is wearing a funny hat and therefore shouldnt be trusted. That is the only reason I've asked for the deletion of comment regarding my private inormation.
So, it makes no difference to me, believe or dont, I still maintain the veracity of what I've said, only with the hope that others may benefit.
