I already have it would be intended to remove distracting and unproductive posts and I realize it may be abused however we cannot make things solely for the worst of us.
All in all I see no significant drawback to it.

Intent is irrelevant. It would absolutely be abused.
The new pattern would be that most posts keep no comments that aren't 100% supportive.
That would kill the forums as a place where exchanges of ideas can take place.
It would also reduce their value to bungie.
And Bungie would see that this person has remove x posts. I would agree if I myself don't get at leads 15 people every post who just come into my post to dick off or say "your idea is shit lolz i'm out" which is not feedback but rather petty insult.
So I disagree with you because it wouldn't matter how it gets abused a bad idea is a bad idea and they will be recognized. Anyway Bungie doesn't really read these forums so it wouldn't really matter.

First, bungie obviously does read the forums. They don't [u]obey[/u] us, and grant our every wish, but they do obviously read them, and they do take action.
Second, you're now proposing that bungie read more and now in addition to the trollspotting that the ninjas do now, they'd also have to review every poster's comment deletion practices. I don't think that's workable.
But we do agree about one thing: a bad idea is a bad idea.
No Bungie simply doesn't listen and the comment delete function would be more like a hide button where Bungie would see all comments and the average forum goer would see only what remained.

Wrong about bungie, wrong about the feature.
