Hi I just noticed that the edit post button comes up with " edit/delete message" when your mouse pointer is hovering over it. Seeing as we cannot delete our own posts I can see that this could lead to some confusion, what do you think??

I agree people will get confused

That Edit button only shows in your OWN posts.
If your post happens to be the very last post in a thread, you can edit or delete it.
If your post is in the middle of a thread, you can only edit it.

What I mean is that it looks as if you can and delete a post no matter where it is in a thread although you can't. This picture quite clearly shows that it says edit/delete post and you can see that it is not at the end of that particular thread.

Let me try that.

EDIT: Couldn't do it. Maybe I'm too idiot lol :p

edit2 by Mictlantecuhtli: I can do it :p

EDIT3: Because you're a mod lol :)

And here I was thinking you were going to say people have a hard time finding it.

I cant seem to delete my post

I'm pretty sure that must have been a mistake when the vBulletin Version was updated. Has there ever been an otion to be able to delete one's post?

possibly.. like in another forum that i regularly visit (although its a small community, so less upkeep) but like any sorts of permissions/login type of thing the delete function (and more) could be restricted to the higher beings of the forum ( = mods, admins etc) while the general users just need the basics to posts, and correct themselves where needed...

I think regular members (not just mods/admins) should have the option to delete the last post in a thread as long as it hasn't been responded to yet
