Can't delete a post?
The thread was closed due to it being hijacked and becoming a mess. I do suggest that you read the rules so that you know what is acceptable. We only deal with known mainstream science.Elite Jacob said:Yet again the point is missed. My misuse of a fictional term is not the issue.

I didn't insult you, I corrected you and no, your post was not restored. You started this thread after your first post was deleted. https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-jaw-noises-infrasound.662023/ I quoted your deleted post in your new thread.Elite Jacob said:Last time you tried to insult me and remove my post I got it back, Evo.

You were not insulted. Your post was described as "nonsense", nothing at all was said about you or your character. There was no implication that because you had posted nonsense you personally were deficient in any way.Elite Jacob said:I was insulted and responded to said insult.
