Deleting old posts

#15 · 2009-11-04 15:29:08

I hope this is the right place for this. Just wondering is it possible to delete old posts from years back? I can't seem to do it.

Once x amount of time has passed, it is no longer possible to delete your comments.
It would break the flow of conversation in the thread.

Thanks. Is it the same with regard to threads? ie can I delete a whole thread if I started it?

If nobody else replies then yes you can, but once another user replies, then you cannot.

You can edit the content though, but we will see that anyway.
