Motion: An item's author, the person who originally enters an item, may remove that item from the system, in its entirety, at any time before someone responds to it using a different login ID. After another person has responded, an item may be removed only if it violates the general policies of grex or of the conference it was entered in, or if it clearly abets criminal activity. Examples of the former include a very large item that attempts to fill all available disk space, items posted more than once or in several conferences at once, repetitive items and items that contain terminal escape sequences. Examples of the latter include items that contain social security numbers or credit card numbers. These examples are not exhaustive; fair-witnesses and staff have discretion to act in the best interests of grex and its users in accordance with general policies. *************** VOTE RESULTS: This vote was proposed in Co-op 13, item #111, response #154.
