I have casted my vote in favor of self-moderation because I think it's a very useful feature that can be helpful for the original poster to delete spam from his/her post without even involving a moderators. The moderators are already busy in doing their duties, and it would be extra burden for them if we report each spam posts in a thread. The only solution to stop such spamming massages from one's post is to self-moderate the post. I know that the feature can be misused by some negative users, but in this life there is always good use and bad use of things. Even money can be used for good things as well for bad things, however, we can't end money because of those people who use it for wrong things.

In my opinion self-moderation should never be banned, and those people who want it to be banned should understand that they wont get any success in their negative intentions. The feature is unique and can be put into use in a very well manner by good posters, thread creators, and even managers of the forum. Any post that has self-moderation can make negative posters to run away from that post because they know it very well that if they reply with useless responses on that post then they will be ignored by the OP, and their reply will be deleted without any question.

I have one more point and that's also a valid one. A self-moderated post gives the whole power of decision in the hands of the original poster, and he/she wont allow trolls, useless spam, abusive replies, or fight between two users in his/her thread. Due to this feature the original posters gets the privileges' to stop non-sense replies from his posts. I as a member of the forum will always support this feature, and I even recommend others to support this amazing feature. I don't really know a lot about Unknown01, however, I have read some posts of 1miau, and I can surely say that he is among the good posters of the forum.
