Why don't I have the authority to delete my post ?

Is it a thread or a post?

Once people have replied to a thread, you can't delete it. Or, if it's older than 2 weeks old.

No one has replied and I only posted today at 14:44 this afternoon.

The easy way is to hit the red button with the white X in it to report it. Then we can delete it... no guess work involved then. Sounds like from what Mike's said, you should've been able to delete though...

Al there is no facility to delete my thread,this is all i Have
You may post new threads
You may post replies
You may post attachments
You may edit your posts
No where is there a place that gives me the right to delete my thread.
I really don't want to have to ask the mods to delete my threads if I change my mind about what I have written.
It is usually that one goes into Edit, it is either there, or Go Advanced and find it there, but it is in neither place.
I have in the past been able to delete my threads but not now.
It is in this post here at the bottom,but not on my original post that I am concerned.
Cheers

I've deleted it now anyway, Ron.

I would've thought that when you edited your post (in advanced edit) there would be a delete this post panel at the top? Maybe even a delete button at the bottom RHS in the normal edit window (or am I just seeing moderator stuff?)

It's there for us plebs, too. After selecting Edit, select Go Advanced and the panel is at the top of the page.

There might be some setting in vB, though, that limits thread editing/deleting rights. I seem to recall (from previous forum duties) that users could be barred from editing a thread (as distinct from a single post) which may prevent thread deletion.

Al I have been on iceinspace long enough now to know how to delete something,which I have no problem to do so in the past.
In this case the facility was not there in any position, that is why I made the inquiry

I've had a similar problem in the past and had to ask mods to delete a post which was a new thread.
