i have a suggestion, if it would be possible.
if somebody makes a thread, and realizes that it already exists/doesn't want it out, could you enable the user that made the thread to be able to remove it, as long as nobody else has posted yet?

i always get the message

You cannot delete your own topics in this board.

You could remove your topics in the past indeed. I'm almost certain I blocked the permission to prevent confusion, because at one point a member decided his topics were 'stupid'. This only led to confusion and PMs from persons claiming posts were disappearng.
So for now, if you want your thread removed, just PM a staff member. As for a member here being able to remove threads, I'll look into that at the soonest possble time.

Azguard: Pretty much. I don't think we understand the consequences that may arise when we remove our threads. But hey, I may reconsider who has the ability. I am almost sure Gods have the abilty.

According to the member rank information, Gods and Donators can move and lock own posts.

Post by: Richard on November 25, 2008, 10:29:47 AM
Ok, I just checked, and no one except staff can remove posts.

wasn't those Yoric's posts and topics?
Title: Re: delete
Post by: morfowt on November 26, 2008, 05:16:53 AM
I don't think so. I think it was before Yorick joined, or at least when Yorick just joined. Although he did say that one of his posts was stupid, but he couldn't delete it because he asked if he could.
Title: Re: delete
Post by: Richard on November 26, 2008, 09:55:02 AM
It wasn't Yorick's no.
