how to remove old posts
 

I made a few posts about 15 years ago in this group, and am no longer
the hot-headed youngster I used to be. At that time, who knew that
Google would take over the world and learn everything knowable about
everyone?

How may I, or whom may I contact, to remove those posts?

Thank you!

Ug. No wonder folks can't get a job any more, with employers
searching the Internet.

I guess that means that all the future politicians will be only those
who don't know how to use the Internet. Wonderful!

Frank, thanks for your help.

Just don't tell them about the ooglyboogly stuff. And if they find
your stuff, tell them you thought fly fishing was a girly sport, you
go in for noodling sharks.

I use Google groups, and I can remove my own original posts by
clicking "more options" in the upper right of the message you wish to
remove, and then clicking "remove" and confirming.

There was no Google Groups fifteen years ago, so ooglyboogly is SOL on
deleting those old posts via a simple browser page. At best, he would have to
find the message ids for every post he wants killed and send them to Google to
request their deletion.

But, if his posts were ever quoted by anybody, even if oogly could get his own
posts deleted, all of these quotes will always be out there, indexed by search
widgets, including the username. And hits on his quotes will be available for
perusal, forever.

The Central Screwtinizer, huh? Is that anything like a, um, frank zapper?

Anyhoo, you're not understanding what (the other) Dave means by "Google groups"
- he translates it as "turnips"...in Armenian...and he knows what he is talking
about - he thinks he heard it on BBC America...or the Boston Herald...

HTH,

Um.....you mean contact someone you can trust? Good luck with that.

Thank you!

You're welcome.

Meanwhile, there are other options available to you:

1. You could grow up fifteen years ago. Not as easy as it sounds, I
suspect, but worth the trouble if the reports I've heard and read are
to be given any credence at all..

2. You could grow up now.....own your actions. Justify them or face
what you are. Doesn't sound all that pleasant, ainna?

3. You could kill all potential employers, spouses, life-mates,
friends, career politicians, law enforcement officials, journalists,
siblings and/or anyone else who could, should, might or has come into
contact with you and/or anyone or anything that might be interesting
or interested in your tendentious past.

4. You could stop sending up signal flares by continuing to post
damning drivel in Usenet groups.

There's more.

Would you like more?

Well, with the exception of the childish comments of one person, thank
you all for you help.

The material I wrote had some political leanings to it, some of which
I no longer believe in anyway. That's all it was. While I know that
it's really not a big deal, it could make the difference when a PR
person, looking over hundreds of job applications in this poor
economy, happens to be a Republican or a Democrat.

Anyway, I think I have my answer. Be well.
