How odd... The "Delete this post" stuff appears to be gone... I wonder why. Usually when I edit a post of mine, like this one, I have the option to delete it. This has included a few thread starting posts as well, so that's not it...

I don't know, it's still there for me.

EDIT: Yeah, checking it on this message now, and it's there.

If you want a specific post deleted and can't, try PMing a mod or reporting your own post and ask for them to delete it.

Let me check and see real quick.

EDIT: Nope. The delete post button is there. Are you trying to delete posts that start a thread? That could be the problem.

This is the answer, quite probably.

There has been no change in the settings, you can still delete posts, you just can't delete the first post of a thread (and never have been able to, unless you remember the YaBB days).
