For a current research project, Snitz is going to be used. As part of this project, one of the goals is to determine how often users use things like discussion groups, event calendar, etc. To that end, it's important that users can't DELETE posts physically, as we want to use the total number of posts as a measure of usage of the discussion group feature.

Has anyone else run into this? I'm thinking basically to just add a publishedTime and unpublishedTime columns to each post. Posts start as published, but instead of getting deleted, become unpublished instead (valid time table implementation). How extensive a change would this be to the code base?

This can most likely be be achieved by executing the update query, instead of Delete query.
