User deleting own post


 

Hello all

I manage a group and have a question. How can I disable members to delete their own post??

Thanks

Kleibe

Admin->Settings->Message Policies->Disable Editing Posts.

And before you ask, there is no way to allowing editing without allowing deletion.

Hope this helps,
Bruce

Thank you. This is already set. But the member still can delete his own post.

This member post on the list. After while he deletes his post. I dont understand why his behavior but I want to not allow this to happen. I want to keep all messages there.

?Hi. What you can also do, is go to that member and questions page and set the option that says that the person is not allowed to post. This means that the member will not be allowed to ?post to your group.
Thanks.

Kleibe,

If the user has Owner or Moderator privileges they may still be able to delete messages even if this setting is set. The setting is for ordinary members.

Kleibe,

delete their own post?
There is no ability to prevent a member from deleting their own content (posts, files, photos, etc.) - except gentle persuasion. That's by design.

Maybe you can explain to them you do not want posts deleted, except if they are really awful posts, and if they keep on deleting their posts delete them.

I personally would tell that user either knock it off or be removed.

Kliebe,

I stand corrected.

I did some more testing to actually verify this and I confirm that even if editing messages for ordinary members is disabled, the option to delete posts is still available to the member that made the post.

It sounds like this subscriber wants his emails to go out to the list but wants no permanent record of it. We have had a few group owners here suggest this same behavior as a group setting; in that all message delivery would be by email with no online reading of the archive available.

Perhaps if your group archives were private (available to subscribers only) he would be more compliant?

I'll try to figure out how to live with it. lol
I'd kindly remind him that you establish the group rules and you will use your moderator role to enforce them if necessary.

Hope this helps,
Bruce?

IMHO, the creative right of a post should still remain with the author. The author should be able to self correct, or delete, their post.

Just to keep you updated.
I have talked to the user. He cited some reasons. He cited that could reduce his footprint on the web. I agree with him in this aspect BUT I want, as moderator, to keep the messages...
If exist that option would be nice.?
?
Thank you!

He is an ordinary member.
Bruce:
Good suggestion. I will try and report it here.
Robert:
I agree with you partialy. I will change the requirements to join the group and see what is happen. By other side if a person join a list I believe that all messages could be archieved for n purposes. At least as an history. My list migrated from Yahoo and was created in 2000.?

If the individual lives in Europe, you don't have that option. If they
want the data deleted, comply or be fined a fairly significant amount -
the greater of E10,000,000 or 10% of gross worldwide revenue.

After 1 January 2020, if your user lives in California, and assuming
that Google,FaceBook, and the like haven't bribed the state legislature
into abolishing it, you won't have that option. However, statutory
damages are only US$7,500 per occurrence.

Does Groups.IO honour x-no-archive headers?

Couldn¡¯t you just copy the msg in that case and post it in a file with his name on it?

Jonathon.
I didnt noted it. Thanks to point me to details.
The list is quite calm but I would like to get something in hand in case of bad behavior in the list or if someone scale a dispute in Justice.?
If a judge ask I will need to deliver the data(its a supposition but can happen).
