Deleting Posts

Postby Zedthou » Mon Nov 12, 2018 4:27 pm

Can anybody explain how to go about deleting your own posts on this forum,i can't seem to find any way of doing it?

The reason i'm asking is that i was going to post a picture to see if my Photobucket embeded fix was still working,if it turned out to be no longer working i was going to delete the post,if it is still working i was going to create a new topic with pictures attached....

Following a moderator choice that is IMO biased and flawed (someone posting aggressive personal attacks is rewarded, while my technical posts are removed), I have withdrawn from this forum.

Then it's something for the admin.

I just tried, I can delete, even if it's a new thread (so first & only post in a thread).

Edit after hes post below: Blurredman is right - now cannot delete this one anymore...

I believe with this forum, as well as most others with specific forum templates, that you can only delete your own post, if you are still the latest poster.. If someone has posted a response after yours, then you cannot delete your own.. ?
