    Yeah, I've done that before..

    Anyways, only if you catch in a certain amount of time -- it seems like you get about 5-10 minutes to delete a post - and only the poster can delete it.

    It should be possible to play WG boards in real-time ..without the wait, regardless of how many are playing.

    For those of us who are prone to/paranoid about such goofs you can set a default in your preferences so that your default is "Team Message"

    Go to Preferences then under "Preferences" and "Messaging Preferences"

    I had suggested a while back that the default setting in any team game regardless of your personal preferences should be "post to team".   The idea didn't get accepted and some argued against it although I don't recall why.   Aside from Tom's time to implement it, it seemed from a design point to be a no-brainer.

    I remember that as well MH. I concurred and some others did too, but the majority seemed opposed.

    Here is the thread.

    I see we got off to a tenuous start MH.  I hope we can bury that and move on. At this juncture, I will concede that team posts seem to be a better default for team-play.  At the time, I did put what I thought might be a reasonable compromise on the table. Namely that the default could be set in preferences.  The point was then made that different defaults seemed be appropriate depending on whether it's a team or non-team game, and that is where the simplicity paradigm kind of hit a wall.  

    Thingol, I think that to say the majority seemed opposed at the time is not entirely accurate. I think the conversation wandered a bit from there and then just petered out.  I'm not at all opposed to revisiting the topic.  I think we just never hit on the right solution, but it seems we were close.
