So I saw this thread earlier and thought it'd be a nice idea, however, another thing that irks me, and I am sure I'm not alone, is that we cannot delete our own posts. In the thread linked, it was mentioned that it was a small thing for a moderator to change a thread's title - granted you don't really have to do that a lot because thread titles don't often need changing. However, deleting posts is a much more desired thing in my opinion, mostly because I often find people here just deleting the content in a post and saying, perhaps "ignore this, double post" or something like that. Or else they're deleting a post because they realized they made an ass of themselves or something. And these posts happen far too often, I don't think moderators should have to and delete someone's accidental double/triple/whatever post. Users should be able to on their own accord, as to keep down thread clutter or at least keep it minimal.
Unlike the last topic, GBAtemp is actually the only site I use in which users are NOT allowed to delete their own posts. Why is this? The potential for abuse here is pretty much negligible since you can just edit and remove content anyway.
Anyways, if it is at all possible, can we have the ability to delete our own posts?
