Soft-delete

Like vbulletin, we should be able to soft delete to recover posts later when they might be needed again. For example someone is unsure if it should be deleted yet it is spam, and the user is banned, someone thinks it is unfair since they have always been good.. they can bring proof up and then it would be fair, or something similar.

  1. I agree that this would be a nice feature, however the same thing is already achievable by just unapproving the posts.

  2. Also, there is a trash can plugin for if you want to remove it without deleting it.

  3. Galen has a point. However, a separate mechanism so as to not land "deleted" posts in the mod queue would be nice.
