Is it a poll?

[ITI3L33]

Yeah, if it's a poll it won't work. Just PM a moderator of that section to delete it.

only mods can delete thread

ordinary members cant do that

[Basherbelding]

If it is locked you cannot either.

[JG.]

its just an ordinary thread no poll or anything else. but thanks for helping all 3 of you get a rep. but i have just 1 question. why does it have an option to delete if only mods can do it?

[Phantasy Dreamz]

you can only delete your post after the thread post

but not the thread post itself

[Basherbelding]

Ok, thanks.

Correct and correct.

 

The option is there, probably, because the only post you can't delete is the first one, so it'd be a pain to write a script to remove the option for members just from the first post of every thread (especially since the script would have to keep it there for mods of that section).
