Edit button is back!

Hi everyone,

The moderators and site owner have determined that it makes sense for users to have the ability to edit their own posts indefinitely, so that ability has been restored. From here on out, though, users do not have the ability to delete entire threads--even threads they start themselves--so if you've ever been prone to doing so keep this in mind.

Thanks for your patience while we worked out the details!

No way, that's you! :rolleyes:

Uhm...are you guys sitting in the same room and talking on LBT? Let me come over with my laptop and we can all three be cool together. :party:

Ok, we screamed loud enough to get Edit back. Now how about giving us the ability to delete our own posts?

Still being patient.. :grouphug:

Third, Please allow us to delete our own posts. Im one of the trouble makers and Im sorry but I honestly did not know it would delete everyones posts and I asked for it to be put back. "Ducks and hides"

Alex, is there a way to incorporate a delete function in which we may entirely delete our post from a thread but leave the rest of the thread intact?

I don't want to be a pain in the hooha but I too would like the option of being able to delete my posts, including header, avatar, and signature line from a thread if I choose to. Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to go off in a huff if this can't be added to the available functions, but it would be something I'd appreciate.

Alex already knows this, but for everyone else's sake: For me, this isn't about regretting a post I may have made. It's about privacy. Sometimes I want to be able to post certain details about myself which may be pertenant to a conversation in a thread. After a short period of time I may want to remove myself from that thread to reduce my visibility in "Internet World". Generally speaking, I don't regret what I've said on LBT - if I do, I say so and apologize - but occasionally I would like to disappear from a thread and I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

In the Gone for Good thread, we want to have all the point charts on the first few pages. We have lots of conversation goin' on between them & in a few days it would be great to delete all the chit chat & just go to the charts & post our points. But, we aren't allowed to DELETE our posts.

If there's a vote, count me in to have the DELETE button put back. :grouphug: :hurt

I'd really like this option too, (winks at Pnut).
