      Presumably they’d still need to hire a session orchestra to record it. That might be a stumbling block.

        Back on Reddit there were people who set up scripts to automatically delete comments after a set amount of time to prevent people from looking at their history. As you could probably guess, they were usually the most stubborn and argumentative sort on the platform.

        Though I’ve upvoted that user before and I normally don’t do that to people being disruptive, so who knows? If only there were some sort of history that would tell me what kind of user they were…

          I just looked at their profile to see if they were a moron. Basically every comment is deleted.

            Aha! Voyager just shows they have like five comments, but doesn’t show that any have been deleted.
