Delete post button

[Trotter]

O, and what is the difference between a moderator and a super moderator?

Supers get to wear a cooler costume... we get to wear a cape.

Basically, a super has jurisdiction over all the forums instead of just certain ones. We also have a few extra options here and there.

There will not be a delete button. And you can only edit your own posts for a certain amount of time. There's too many problems that can happen if one could delete their own threads/posts: like deleting the other posts in the thread, or making replies not make sense.

If you need something deleted, PM a mod for it.

As Trotter said, a Mod can delete it if it doesn't affect other posts (and it's usually soft-deleted anyway).

A soft-delete makes the post or thread not available to the public, but it's still in the database.

I know. But on other forums, there is a delete button.

I can say the same thing about other forums. There are other forums that don't have them, too.

Dave one question i would like to ask:

Why when you delete the post it dosn't effect a quote from that post?
