so we can delete posts here?
This is only the second time or so that I've visited the Pale Moon forum, and I just noticed there is a "delete post" button. That was unexpected: I'm used to forum moderators not believing in the deletion of posts, and getting extremely annoyed at any behavior intended to remove one's content (for instance, if you post then decide the post was stupid and you regret it). Any comment?

Re: so we can delete posts here?
If my memory serves me correctly, you can delete a post only if someone does not make a post after you have. Once a person makes a post after your post, then you cannot delete your post.

Re: so we can delete posts here?
Deleting your own posts is possible but only for a limited amount of time -- exactly for when you regret making the post. Even so, moderators can see what you initially posted before deleting it (to be able to catch unsavory/unruly content that was then swiftly deleted but may still have been seen).
