Delete posts?


How come I can't delete my post/thread if I figured out my problem before anyone answered me? I see the option but I don't have permission

only jeremy can delete posts. just replace them with a . if you really need to. or just have a go at your own problem before posting.

You SHOULDN'T replace your questions with a . if you figure it out, you should post the solution. If you had the problem odds are that someone else will too. Your answer may help them. I disabled the ability to delete posts for the exact reason you are asking about.

Well the only deal was I didn't figure out a good answer, or why my problem was happening. I just found sort of a "workaround"

I was just wondering since the delete post option was availiable when I went to edit my post.

Thanks....
