Because its annoying if you make a post and your wrong >.< or if you accidently make two from lag.

Does it really matter if you allow delete?

if you are wrong, you get 12 hours to edit your post.
just click post once to avoid the chance of double posting.
delete was also used by people to 'top' old posts then delete their post, confusing other people, this was annoying too.

But i dont mean to click twice sometimes...isnt a huge deal i just don't see that it matters although you explained the deleting thing...

Can't you set it so you can delete it within 5 minutes? And thats it.

You missed the part about posting something to send a topic to the top then deleting it to confuse people didnt you?

Like when somoene sent the whole rob vs rick arguement about DA to the top and deleted post, that pissed me off.

It's happened before and it is pretty annoying. I think we all know none of us are perfect so if we post something we want to delete later, it is just another one of our mistakes. It is nightmist...a text based game....its just its forums...it really doesnt matter that much if you mess up.

Yeah i realised after i posted and couldn't be bothered to edit ...i just wish there was still a delete button there..

Can't it be set to go back where it was if the post is deleted?
