Hopefully never, if it did. steem would be dead.

I definitely don't want that. But anything can be coded into steemit. I think delete options wouldn't make or break it at all, it's just an option.

you can't do it with the blockchain, if it was easy to delete a post, then you can delete anything, even transactions with the coin. and then you cause big issues. the block chain can never been change with out screwing up the whole system. You need to make sure, what you post is what you mean. When you tell someone in person, you have to think before you talk, because when you talk, you have no way to delete your verbal speech to that person. Hence why the block chain is important, and its a permanent record. I don't like to be a downer, this is how it is, if it's uneasy. There is always facebook, where you can delete to your hearts content. Yet I hope you stay, I think we all are important in this revolution in tech.
