There seems to be some misconception going around where people think they can’t delete their own posts. You definitely can, even pictures or uploads, and you don’t need to flag your own posts so that moderators can delete it.
There are some limitations, but for the most part it should not affect you:
Posts can only be deleted if they were posted in the last 10 years
You can only delete 10 posts a minute
You can only delete 100 posts a day
You can’t delete a topic if someone has replied to it, but you can edit the initial post of the topic to remove content
Remember, you are always responsible for your posts. Keep that and the above limitations in mind when posting so you are never in the situation where you need to delete more than 100 posts a day and have to wait.
As a test, I created a “normal” account for myself that does not have any admin privileges at all. It’s just a basic user account. I created a topic. Inside of the topic I posted a picture and I made a normal text post. I was able to delete that picture and I was able to delete the text post. All using the basic user account.
To delete a post, even if it has a picture, do this:
In the bottom-right of that post, tap on the expand button
What does it mean when you tap the trash button and your whole post just turns red (highlighted)
Also how can you change your profile name??. I really want to get back on here but I need my profile name changed. Please
Please also remember, do not flag your own posts for deletion. Flagging is for inappropriate (sorry C-sun!) or offensive, triggering, etc. posts. Flags can count against you!!! Please PM us the post # and thread or a link to it. Thanks!!!
