but

hahaha !! that post was written in 2014 i think there might have been improvments after that …

Someone posted questionable content … hence just a soft delete just does not work.

Though I completely get @codinghorror point that there should not be hard delete in the UI. Since that creates a lot of possibilities for mischief.

Here is the code for topic.destroy discourse/app/controllers/topics_controller.rb at 5f19ad95074329bea3328a796f061de79db9c227 · discourse/discourse · GitHub this does seem to call PostDestroyer
