Why Can't Users Delete Their Own Posts

[crokett™]

I tried deleting a post in Woodturning and was informed I don't have the rights to delete it.

When the new software was introduced, members could delete a post of a thread that they started.

Then, members thought it funny to delete a thread that was highly populated with posts... just for fun.

So now members cannot delete a thread, but can delete a post (provided it isn't the first post of a thread.

Hope that helps.

thanks. I guess some jokers can't help but ruin it for everybody else.

This really sucks, can't change pics or anything. Thought I was deleting pics in preview and it posted the thread 3 straight times and could not delete. This is a mess.

So, how do I request one of my posts, btw that has no replies, be deleted?
