Let me heat that up for you... 
just like time travel paradox. you go back in time, kill your granny, so you can't have been born, so you couldn't have traveled back in time, so you couldn't have killed her, meaning you would have been born, so you could travel back in time, and kill her, etc...

so if undink undid it, you couldn't have told him to? what if it was an external scource that had nothing to do with TDN? then it wouldn't stop destroying until about the time when undink joined, and then either of two possibilities could happen:
1. Undink, no longer existing on TDN, would just simply stop
2. Undink, doesn't exist on TDN, but still exists in the 'real world', and therefore the external scource, which didn't know about TDN, could keep influencing him
3.This is an impossible scenario, but I will state it anyway, and then i will tell you why it is impossible: Since he undid the post from BG, no-one could have told him, but here, in this example, we are talking of an 'external scource', but for this scenario that would not be valid and would fall into scenario 2. So he undoes bg's post, which means no one could have told him, so he couldn't have reversed TDN, creating a paradox.

Why No.3 doesn't work:
Well, if you delete a post, that post can still remain in undink's memory, and therefore he would go on into either 1 or 2, and the most likely would be 2, although the most logical would be 1, although in real life logic doesn't always mean common. Anyway, in 3, it is actually 'time reversal', and reversing time is not possible at the moment, and by the time that is possible, if it ever will be, which it probably will not, otherwise the moment it is used the universe would be non-existant, since you cannot simply just reverse and remember it, it will reverse instantly to us, and we would have no memory of it, and then you couldn't have made it, blah blah blah more paradox, and then that is stupid.

Oh and by the way, how much are you willing to pay me to burn the logo?
