Question on Deleting Posts

[Rayhana]

Is there a way for me to delete my own posts vs editing them? There are times I've wanted to delete something but all I can do it edit and then I'm obligated to type 20 characters and sometimes I simply want to delete the post and say nothing.

Deleting and moving threads is only allowed by forum moderators and higher. The system is set up so that moderators can delete posts, but only within their own forums. There is no way to allow for a member to selectively delete posts, even if they originally posted them.

Sorry!

Okay, thanks. I just hate to delete and then feel forced to write something, anything because the system requires 20 characters.

You can make the request of the forum moderator. In general, however, we prefer to keep all the posts on the forums for historical purposes and future discussions if they should arrise.

I understand and thanks for the info.
