Regarding this post which didn't get any replies:
/108/8b/126562/1.html

Could you confirm that objects placed on somebody else's land really are permanently deleted (ie. not returned to last and found) if the landowner chooses the 'delete' option?

It seems to make sense for the two (return or delete) options. Why have a 'delete' option if it does exactly the same as 'return', for example? You can read in my other message why I'm concerned about this.

Yes, "Delete" should delete as intended and expected. If otherwise is found, a bug report is in order.

Ongoing thoughtline about this:

Guy and I had a chat about this... about why "Delete" might not make much sense. It might be destructive in some situations, and it'd suffice to just "Return".

I'm not outright sure of this, but please also check the permissions--I have *heard* that if you delete someone else's no-copy object from your land, it'll be returned to them but I can't confirm this at the moment.
