How to delete post?

[the gamer]

Hi all, I notice where you click to edit your post, it also says delete, however I can't to see a delete post option, so how do I delete it then?

Cheers.

It doesn't appear to be enabled.

Just put three dots or something and people will ignore it.

Members can edit their posts but not delete them. Deleting posts has been abused in the past and was disabled due to that fact. If you really need a post deleted, contact the forum mod and they will make the deletion or you.

Just a quick question, how could you abuse it?

 

[CommanderFrank]

....by making outrageous/inflamatory/pornographic/illegal type posts and when everyone raises hell, merely delete the post/thread before anyone quotes it. It was a big problem before we limited the option.
