When generals get dupe revived after they fall off the board, sometimes multiple people post the same general. This can particularly happen if more than one person wants to be the next person to make the thread.
Then we need to wait for a mod/janitor to come around and delete the dupe threads. It's particularly bad because if this doesn't happen two entire threads can be kept alive at once.
People should be able to delete their own threads if they're extremely young and share a subject title with another thread. That way people who mess up and post a second general can delete it without waiting for a janitor/mod, and there's no threat of it getting bumped repeatedly and living too long.

Yeah, I don't see why you shouldn't be able to delete your thread, for let's say five minutes after creation.

Or maybe just deal with the fact that people can create threads and ones which do not attract conversation with naturally fall off the board. Trying to force this one thread dedicated to a single thing at a given time is in effect enforcing a culture of general threads, which naturally stifle creativity and limit conversation.
Your pic related in particular contains a general thread on /a/ which belongs on either /jp/ or /int/, and so should be moved by mods regardless. Why are mods moving other /jp/ threads from /a/ but not a thread which is fundamentally /jp/ in nature? That is another good question, but maybe for a different thread.

DJT is not a /jp/ thread, anon. /jp/ is a niche otaku culture board. The japanese language is not a niche otaku interest.

People usually try within the first minute then give up thinking they can't delete it. Especially off /vg/.

Are you sure about that? I'm fairly confident my attempts to delete shit have always failed, even after a minute has passed.

>DJT is not a /jp/ thread, anon.
Yes it is.
>The japanese language is not a niche otaku interest.
It very much so it. They even have Japanese learning threads on /jp/ from time to time.
>>470253
It's as off-topic in /jp/ as it is in /a/ and overlooked because people pretend they're both boards for arbitrary weeb shit.
>>470253
>It very much so it.
Nope.
>>470253
Languages belong on /int/ anon. This also applies to japanese. The japanese language is not "Otaku Culture".

>It's perfectly on topic in /jp/.
It is not and has never been.
>Are you retarded or are you one of the retards who use that general?
No, I use /jp/.
>>470258
>It's perfectly on topic on topic in /jp/. Are you retarded or are you one of the retards who use that general?
Do you even know jp's rules?

All of those threads were created by one guy who is waging a sustained, multi-front campaign against /a/ and "DJT", which is a containment thread for all the people reading untranslated Japanese content.

general fags outside of /vg/ like you should be banned on site, specially /a/ cancer, which only brought kids and plebs there.
