How do I delete a post of my own? I've inadvertently duplicated a post and want to delete the duplicate.
I can't find a 'delete post' option ...... is there one? I beg pardon in advance if this info is stickied somewhere () .... if so .... where please? |

You don't. Just leave it be & it'll move down. No worries.

You have two options:
1) Replace your text with something like "Deleted." 2) Hit the "Report Post" button () at the bottom left of your post and ask one of us (moderators) to delete it for you. |

What happens if you wrote something you regret, you then delete the message, but in the meantime someone else quoted you?

Click the report button, explain what happened, and ask a mod to remove the quote.

I can live with my postings, so far I haven't logged in after a bottle of wine, so it was more a generic, theoretical situation.

I try to post with care, but once a while we all slip. Well, it's a problem when you say things publicly.

I had the same question. Made two unnecessary posts and wanted to delete. Edit icon gives a popup Edit/Delete message. Feel bad about cluttering the landscape. I'll have to be more careful in the future.

How does one delete one's forum post?
I posted a reply on a thread and then decided it was silly and wanted to delete it, but it seemed all I could do was edit the post. How do I delete my post if I want to?

All you can do is click on the "!" mark above the post and request a mod delete it for you.
