Paranoia is a re-implementation of acts_as_paranoid for Rails 3 and Rails 4, using much, much, much less code.

You would use either plugin / gem if you wished that when you called destroy on an Active Record object that it didn't actually destroy it, but just hide the record. Paranoia does this by setting a deleted_at field to the current time when you destroy a record, and hides it by scoping all queries on your model to only include records which do not have a deleted_at field.

If you wish to actually destroy an object you may call really_destroy!.

WARNING: This will also really destroy all dependent::destroy records, so please aim this method away from face when using.

If a record has has_many associations defined AND those associations have dependent::destroy set on them, then they will also be soft-deleted if acts_as_paranoid is set, otherwise the normal destroy will be called.
