Delete my post option?

[KyDan]

Hi, it's not often but once in a great while I might post
a reply and then decide I don't want to do that.

I can edit my own post but cannot delete it.
If I delete all the words and uncheck the signature option
it says I need at least 2 characters.
Not sure what good 2 characters are but please consider
adding the delete option for my personal posts.

Thanks!

Occasionally, I wish I could whistle back a hastily concidered reply or post as well.

I as well whated to delete a post as well after thinking about the subject, but end up stuck, can something be done about it? Thanks.

Deletion would be a useful feature for the Want Ads as well when something is sold.

If you want a post deleted, tell me which one via PM and I will do it for you. An alternative is to edit the post and enter .. as the required characters. If you start a thread, it will be better for me to delete it.

I seem to recall from somewhere that the ability to delete a post is an "administrator function." To do so you have to have administrative access to the database(?). See Kim's post above.

I wasn't thinking of deleting a post that I started that had
multiple replies.
I was thinking of me being the last guy to reply and then
having 2nd thoughts and wanting to just forget it!

If it's not in the software then so be it.

I'm with KYDan, I too could have used the ability to delete a post in the past.

Hokie, could you kindly tell me where in the heck the edit button is?

I know where it should be for this Vbulletin version and I am guessing it is not turned on?

Apparently the edit function is turned off. I will look into it.
