AI-generated summary
A discussion is underway about whether topic creators should be able to delete comments from others on their topic. Pirat suggests this feature would be useful, especially on sites with no moderators. However, others argue that existing moderation tools, such as flagging posts, are sufficient. zogstrip, codinghorror, and Mittineague emphasize the importance of moderators in handling objectionable content, rather than giving topic creators the power to delete comments. TechnoBear shares an example of a member who already abuses the flagging system and warns against giving topic creators the power to delete comments.
Why don’t you flag the post(s) you don’t like and explain the moderators why?

this is useful if the site has no moderators
If enough people flag a post, it will be handled even with no moderators around.

but if a person swears obscenities while others do not mind, but against the creator of a topic
If moderators don’t care that someone is cursing the OP you need to leave this community.

IMHO if anyone is to be Judge, Jury and Executioner it should not be a topics OP but the forum’s Moderators.
As posted by others, Discourse already has adequate ways of dealing with objectionable content.

Indeed.
We have a member who flags any reply to her topics which she doesn’t like as Spam. These are not offensive posts; just people disagreeing with her. Imagine if she had the power to simply delete them all.
