Deleting my own threads....

    Hi guys,

    This might probably sound a little stupid, but it would be nice if I could completely delete some of my posts. For example, if I say something I didn't like, or was not necessary, I could remove it. That would be less work for mods :)

    Something like the Gallery's "Delete this post" feature.

    Just a suggestion though... :)

    BTW (an off-topic question), what's up with these little "+" marks?

    Hiya mate.

    It might be less work for the mods, but can you imagine what damage could be done if everyone was allowed to delete their own threads/posts?

    If ever you need anything deleting, any of the mods will be more than happy to oblige.

    I`m not sure what you mean by these little "+" marks. can you explain please?

    Regards Howard :)

    Thanks man for the response :)

    I think I made a stupid question (like always :eek:)
    You're completely right, it would be a mess.

    BTW, take a look at the image I posted. Next to your name, there is a little "+" mark. Also, next to MetalX's name there is another one.....

    Weird things I suppose....

    Hey, don`t be so hard on yourself. There`s no such thing as a stupid question, only stupid answers lol.

    I have no idea what the little + is next to MetalX`s and my names. Maybe Julio will have a better idea.

    Regards Howard :)

    Who knows about that little "+". Maybe is a glitch or something with my browser. It's been very annoying these days.

    Thanks for the response btw.

    Regards :wave:

    If I'm not mistaken the + is put next to users that you've added to your buddy list.
