Ok, so I was working on Ragnos a while back but now I won't have time to finish it, nor do I want to. Anybody know how to delete a thread?

You can't, as far as I know.
Moderators can delete threads, so you could always PM one of the mods for whatever section you posted in and ask politely, but I wouldn't expect them to delete it without a good reason. They might lock it for you, to prevent it being bumped up to the top of the forum.

Though I think your best bet is to simply let it sink down to the depths of the forum.

Okay. I guess Ragnos is more or less dead at this point...:smallfrown:

I may be wrong, but I think you can delete a thread by deleting the first post in it, *provided* nobody has posted any replies.

Sadly, no. That just leaves an empty thread. Literally empty.

Sheriff: As suggested, just leave it alone and it'll sink to the bottom. If someone revives it beyond the cut off for thread necromancy, we'll lock it. If you really need it locked for some reason, PM a mod for the relevant section, and we'll see.

We're very unlikely to actually delete a thread.
