Any way to delete a reply on the BG bulletin board?

Unread post by Xorena »

As I was composing a reply to a message, someone snuck in and posted another message. This caused my bulletin board reply to get posted under their message, diplomatically entitled "F the Flaming Fist."

I posted mine under the correct one after that, but was wondering if anyone knows how I can delete that? I didn't see a way but maybe I'm missing something on the interface.

Nope, there's no way to delete or edit replies on the IG message board. I think DM's can delete them though, or maybe that's just entire posts. Which is probably what's going to happen if that person actually posted the F-bomb on their love letter to the Fist :lol: ... (when are people going to learn that the F-bomb ISN'T a real curse in the setting?)

Yes. The F-bomb was there and the DM handled it wonderfully.

In the future if I am posting anything complex I'll write it in a text editor first.

When a half-decent curse that satisfies frustration is presented as an alternative, and is liked probably :P

A suitable word to use when wanting to insult a man, by referring to him by his genitalia, is to call him a wangrod.

Edit: Although a wangrod may or may not be gender neutral. Will have to ask Matt Colville about that.

If only there were a roleplay guide for curses and insults...

:lol: ... there's all kinds of alternate curses that satisfy! Ahem...

F-bomb alternatives:
"Pike off."
"Fething orc-bloods..."
"What the... is that a feckin' bunny mask on yer face?"

And so on, and so forth.

Also, the inquisition seems to have removed the offensive IG message board literature. Crisis averted!
