Can't be arsed to do a screen dump / photo bucket jobbie - but you used to be able to click edit and under options section tick delete your post, either the whole thread (if no one had replied) or just the single post within the thread

You've never been able to delete your post once someone has replied to it on pf.

No - but IIRC you could delete your post or the whole thread if no-one had posted after you. I could be talking bollocks [or getting confused with another board], but then again says you can in the FAQ

Cheers Eagle... no need now, cos just changed the post contents, rather than delete - but thought I was going mad?

From the FAQ:

Quote:

How do I edit or delete a post?
Unless you are the board admin or forum moderator you can only edit or delete your own posts. You can edit a post (sometimes for only a limited time after it was made) by clicking the edit button for the relevant post. If someone has already replied to the post, you will find a small piece of text output below the post when you return to the topic that lists the number of times you edited it. This will only appear if no one has replied; it also will not appear if moderators or administrators edit the post (they should leave a message saying what they altered and why). Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied.

"Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied." - I take this as if no one has replied then normal users can delete?
