Option to delete Posts

[Luuke]

I just made a Forum post about an iOS and android App as a Feature request, after which i saw that there has already been a post for this.
Now i wanted to delete my post, to avoid doublettes, but it seems like there is no option for that at the moment.

Stop gap, you seen to be able to report your own post? "this comment is ok, but i want to tell a moderator about it"

Why should be burdened moderators with such a task? Deleted posts can simply just be hidden but still visible if the user wants to investigate what was said just like the edit button.

Yeah we probably should make a change to this policy. I'll review forum settings this week to lax this up a bit. Not looking to create more administrative burden for ourselves.

It would also be nice if we could up/down vote all posts and not just q&a

So far, the policy has not changed. Posts still cannot be edited or deleted after a time period of approximately 5 minutes. This time limit should be removed.

Unless there is a past history of abuse why can't we simply edit a post at any time. I ran into this again today and it's really frustrating.

Hi Jon - have you had a chance to see if post edit restrictions can be eased up yet?
