Please let me know If I can delete a post (reply) posted by me. I tried to edit and there is no delete option!

I have two questions about these forums in regards to user titles and icons. I noticed that I just gained a strawberry under my name. What does that mean, and is it bad? And I saw someone whose name was gray and their user title was "Incorrigible". What does that mean? Thank you for your help.

I asked for this and was refused numerous times; please reconsider and delete these posts, not just move them to the members-only forum. I think I have a right to ask this even though your policy states that you don't 'normally' delete posts upon request, I think in this case, there is a conflict between the right to be forgotten and the right of the Urch forum to retain information deemed helpful for its users. The above posts are causing me occasional anxiety, worry and hopelessness because of worries of identity breach, thus affecting my physical and emotional health negatively. I urge you to strongly consider deleting both posts, especially the second one, which has no replies and thus offers no help to Urch users anyway. The first one which is in the members' forum is still not confidential as the number of members is still quite numerous. If I could, I want to ask for help from a lawyer who could advise me on whether my request could in fact be upheld by law, otherwise if the law is strict in its upholding of individual forum rules concerning post deletion and so forth, I would acquiesce. If my request can be legally made a case, then please consider deleting both posts for the sake of my rights. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.

Hello! I got a note from a mod saying this post was considered "Flaming." Though "flaming" isn't explicitly forbidden in the forum rules (maybe it should?), I did find a post where the same mod said flagging posts for "flaming" was under their discretion. No issue here with that policy. I'm confused as to how my post "flamed" considering the guidance provided for what is/isn't tolerated. I called the poster out for logical fallacies and misrepresenting claims. Is that viewed as a character attack...? Here's the notice: Thanks! Edit: It now appears that the post has been deleted for "offensive language." Where did I use "offensive language?"

i wrote a thread a few days ago but i cannot find how to delete this thread please delete

I was muzzled recently due to having too many infraction points. And while I was on that status, I could not post any new threads, reply to topics, or send any messages. However, while browsing the Feedback forum, Inoticed that other muzzled members were still able to start threads. I'm just wondering why I was unable to create any new threads while I was muzzled. Thank you.

Dear Admin, I would like to change my username for privacy reasons. Would that be possible (I really do not want to delete my account because I have some postings here that I would like to keep.). Also, if my username is changed, would that also change the name in my old posts? Kind regards,

For privacy reasons I'd like to change my username. How should I go about this?

Hello, I would like to delete my account: username: AREStudentHopeful word: save11

Hello moderators, I've been trying to delete my account, and I'm wondering how I should go about that. Apparently moderators are not accepting messages - so how do I get my secret word to you? Also, I would like to have my username changed to something random before my account is permanently deactivated. I am a little disappointed as I posted something about changing my username LAST JUNE, and got no response. :shy:

Please help me deleting my account in this www.urch.com forum. Thank you.

I received a warning email today from the moderator? i guess about my double postings today! I Unintentionally click the reply button to the wrong person for that message and so i repeated to send the same message to the correct person i am meaning to reply a message. hence the double posting! sorry it wont happen again, did both of my posts got deleted though? :(

Hi, I would appreciate if you could change my user ID and then delete this account. I would like my user ID to first be changed to 'redacted' (with random numbers at the end if it isn't available) if that's alright, and then the entire account deleted. If possible I would also appreciate if you could delete this thread following that, or if not then redact the information below. Username: redacted Secret word: redacted Thanks!

Dear Forum Administrators, I beg you to delete my account with the thread I opened last year. The url is http://www.www.urch.com/forums/toefl/147944-could-anybody-check-my-toefl-essay-please.html#post951715 because I wrote it using my real name and if somebody google my real name can read it and I don't like it. If you need my password or other things please do not hesitate to contact me. Yours faithfully EW

Hi Erin, Does anybody read messages on "Contact Us"? I have sent some messages but didn't receive any replies yet. Thank you

Erin, I flagged a number of posts that I would like deleted for privacy reasons. Please let me know if you need anything else from me to fulfill this request. Thanks

For several months I try to contact somebody who is able to change my nickname and who has the time to do that. I understand that we are all grown up here and we should know that the internet is public and not everybody is our friend. However, I absolutely did not expect people from outside the forums to read my forum posts here, and I also did not expect my posts and other things to be interesting for certain people, partly including journalist networks of real size who friendly poke fun at me, but it's not only fun, because I get approached about my posts here on almost a daily basis, offline, in real life, which I thought was not connected to here at all. The problem is I used the nickname also for other things and people misbelieve the reasons. It would be more than useful if I could get my nickname changed, so that it longer leads the Google ranking with the name which I never expected to become famous nor become widely known connected with me. Different to Bing Google recognizes interest of readers, and sorts according to this. I just posted around to play, not always sober, but people think these posts are my life and as time goes by it really becomes very annoying. I cannot turn on a social network without being reminded of my partly silly forum posts here. Can please finally somebody change my nickname into any other ? This would be totally enough. I do have a secret word and I would like to reveal the forum nickname to be changed + the secret word via private message or via email to/from request2urch@icloud.com . Please contact me via PM or Email to know the secret word and nickname to be changed My second and last post would be the Thank you here.

that hasn't shown up yet. It said it was pending administrator approval. Did it get denied?

Hi, The following is not mentioned anywhere in the Forum Rules which I read intensively before posting my thread, exactly to avoid having it removed: The rule your post appears to have broken: Flaming More information: Feel free to post about the master's program and its limitations. DO NOT criticize a named individual. --- --- How should I know it is against the rules if it's not mentioned ? :) (All I could find was that we were advised not to use our real names). Under which country laws does Urch.com operate? Criticising a named individual is actually not illegal in most of EU (maybe all of EU?)! What should I do now? Write his initials/ first name plus last name initials, or any other suggestions? (Several teacher are called his name, and if they change him with another person with the same name (actually not too unlikely!), people might still think it's the same person, which is a big pity! Best Regards, A.

tm_member, Namaste. I am posting this because I was not allowed to ask one of my doubt at urch ph.d. forum. I am self-learning economics to enter in good masters program. So, I have many doubts relating to maths, stats, economics and econometrics time to time. I ask my doubts related to maths and stats at math.stackexchange.com and stats.stackexchange.com and get really impressive reply. But I can't find any forum where I can ask my economics doubt. I asked one at EJMR and got abusive words as well as advice to go to testmagic. So I asked my other doubt here. If you inform me any question-answer website for economics questions, where I can post my doubt and get answers, I will be obliged.

Hi Erin, No one is taking care of the Business forum and I keep getting messages to approve posts. I don't have the time to moderate that forum nor do I know anything about Business programs so I don't think I should be listed as a mod of that forum. Thanks

Hi! Business forum doesn't have dedicated mods, and the econ mod recommended I try posting it here, so - Could you please help me with deleting a few of my threads with my personal info and bio, namely these: http://www.www.urch.com/forums/phd-busin...-strategy.html ((Summa Summarum) Profile Review Management/Strategy) http://www.www.urch.com/forums/phd-polit...-programs.html (What is a competitive GRE at the top programs?) http://www.www.urch.com/forums/phd-busin...ip-scales.html (PhD profile review / How else to tip the scales?) Reason: getting paranoid =D. Thanks

Dear Erin, as it turns out moderators have no powers to change nicks. For reasons I could explain to you via pm (but I can't as you do not allow that), I would like to have my nick changed, into FooBarXYZ, where XYZ is really anything added to make it unique. Best, FooBarXYZ :)

In which forum should I post the following query. I was going through Romer book and got stuck on page 199. Equation 5.1 is transformed into eq 5.2 through differentiation, but I did not get how the differentiation took place. Can anyone explain me how eq 5.1 is transformed into eq 5.2. Any help will be highly appreciated.
