You cannot delete your posts. That is an action that only moderators can do.

Generally, people don't care about other's post counts, possibly except for the 1k milestones. Even if you put go-faster stripes on them.

Ace is correct... he just forgot to ask a question in return... why do you want to deet your posts?

Maybe in the instance of a double post, a delete function would be useful.
(Though I don't think a delete function should exist for "civilians.")

Big Daddy · 10-01-2006, 07:32 AM

can't we have a delete option next to save when you edit a post

BrandonTragedy · 10-01-2006, 08:40 AM

In my opinion, No, because than people would randomly be deleting post to piss people off.

Big Daddy · 10-01-2006, 12:47 PM

i mean posts that the person editing made

***Ace Mercury*** · 10-01-2006, 04:04 PM

It's still annoying if people start deleting their own posts. You have a thread with two people in it, and then make it a thread where some guy is talking to himself.

The Doctor · 10-01-2006, 05:03 PM

Just ask a mod, if it was a double post. If not tough.

I don't think that was so funny that you'd fall down and laugh, let alone nine separate times.

Big Daddy · 10-02-2006, 12:29 PM

^ i like to exajerate and i know i spelt that wrong

Leinad · 10-02-2006, 12:53 PM

then why didn't you spell it right?

***Ace Mercury*** · 10-02-2006, 03:15 PM

It's because he wants to insult us all, implying we're not worth spending a couple of seconds on to look up the correct spelling.

Bomby · 10-02-2006, 03:24 PM

We had the self-delete post function back in the day and no problems came ouot of it... not that I remember anyways.

***Ace Mercury*** · 10-02-2006, 06:31 PM

There were problems, it's just that they were deleted from history a la Nineteen Eighty-Four.

***Heroine of the Dragon*** · 10-02-2006, 07:35 PM

There were lots of hassles... hence why that feature was denied to regular members.

But, if you require a double-post deeted, don't worry, some Mod/SuperMod/Admin will do so.
