Korrupted Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 One of the things that I find kind of annoying on this forum, which are far and few mind you, is the lack of self privileges. By this I mean, how come we can't delete our own topics, or edit our own topic titles, or heck, even delete our own posts? I find these useful, so could they possibly be enabled? Just a thought.

Colonel Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 I agree. Just before I accidentaly posted too many of the same topic and I can't delete the extras. Could we please get a little more privileges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swad Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Certainly. We're working on a major refresh of the forum for our birthday, July 4th. We'll have most of those features in place for that! The only one I worry about it deleting your own threads. If it's a popular thread, and someone gets tired of the conversation or gets angry, they could delete it... meaning the resource is lost. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 I think that members should be able to delete their own threads but only Mods could remove anyone's thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogabean Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 only allow someone to delete their own thread IF there are no posts after the initial one. that solves that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swad Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Yeah, we're somewhat limited by Invision (the forum software) on this one. I'm not sure that it'll allow us to set terms for self-deletion. Edit: Your wish is my command - all members can now delete their own posts and edit topic titles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonel Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Thanks for the deleting privilege Mash. I also like the new unlimited upload space. I can't wait to see the site when it gets upgraded in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrupted Posted May 23, 2006 Author Share Posted May 23, 2006 Where is the option to delete your own posts at? I can't seem to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swad Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Yeah, no one can delete parent posts. (Not even me!) But you should have the ability for other posts. You still don't see anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
