Ability to delete a Group Shake

Reported by snippid | May 14th, 2011 @ 09:34 AM

I created a Group Shake with a poor URL choice and I found myself wanting the ability to delete it.

Even with my limited end-user perspective, I can see there are complications that arise with this request:

  • What if a Group has multiple members and they do not all wish to see the Group Shake deleted?
  • What happens to the posts associated with the Group Shake?
  • What happens to the posts that were Liked into Favorites or Saved into other Shakes?
  • What happens to the conversations associated with the Group Shake?
  • What happens to the members of a deleted Shake?
  • What happens to the users that are following a deleted Shake?
  • Does the URL fall back into the pool of available URLs?
  • Does it require maintaining a Group Shake create/delete cap to avoid abuse?
  • Does it truly delete the Group Shake or just become inaccessible to the public (for the ability to undo if an accident was made)?

    We're going to leave the shake in existence and just block uploading to it. Giving the user the ability to create a new shake.

    To reclaim shakes is going to be a problem, and I'd rather do them by hand until we get a better way. Definitely a problem we talk about here.
