You got me beat then. I don't have moderator privileges in this part of the forum, so I shouldn't have any options you don't, and I see my delete button no problem.

If I'm seeing this right, you can only delete a post if it's still the most current post in a certain thread (e.g. no one's posted after the one you want to delete). When I look at my posts, there is no delete button, but when I check the specific one under the "Rackbuilders" thread, which is the last one in that specific topic, there is a delete button.

Edit: Same with this post. At the current time, I see a "Delete" button (between "Go Advanced" and "Cancel"). I'll have this confirmed the next time someone posts here.

I'm now curious myself. The button is still there on this post, but on others in this case (that aren't the last in the thread), it's not there. I brought this up because this is how it works on another forum I frequent. I figured it would be the same.

Could it be a glitch of some sort?

Another oddity is that my signature graphic appears in post on this thread and not in others.

When did you upload your signature? If you just uploaded it when you started posting in this thread, that's why. Go down to "Additional Options" below the "Submit Reply" button, and make sure the "Show your signature" button is checked. After clicking it once, it should show up and stay checked automatically.

Gentlemen the reason why you can't delete the thread is because you have not be given that permission in this area of the forum.

Please go down to the bottom of this page on the far left you will see forum permissions/posting rules.

You may post new threads
You may post replies
You may post attachments
You may edit your posts


It does not state you can delete a Thread, therefore you don't have that ability.

So no you can't delete the thread.
