Is it possible for non mods to delete their own post on here?

I was just curious if that option existed on this board. Say I replied to someones post...thread whatever, could I delete that post within a certain time frame?

there's a time limit for you to edit it (5 minutes last i knew of), but no, you cannot remove your post.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was just curious if that option on here existed.

10 minutes now

You can edit your post for 10 minutes after posting it (even after closing the page I've noticed as long as it's within 10 minutes).

You can edit it to blankness

Well not really. You have to have something there so some people change it to "nvm" or "." or something like that otherwise it says "your post is empty" and won't let you save the changes.

My quote was in the post... that's not "blankness"

Lol I've tried editting to remove all info it won't let me. i've tried "composing" by just hitting "add reply" but it won't let me. You COULD in theory put text but then make it white and maybe then it'll be blank... I'll try that next i assume you'd have to then hit "reply" to my post to see what I wrote... tricky tricky

**Edit - see below. You can just highlight it with your mouse to make it visible

This is my test to see whether white text will look blank. if you're replied to this post you'll know what I wrote

Yep - when you highlight the 'white space' in the 'apparent emptiness' of the post you can read Vanessa's message :-). Actually, that trick was used by a spammer shortly after I became a Mod - couldn't figure out what was wrong until someone suggested highlighting the space and the spam message became apparent.

That's pretty amusing. Now I will know what to do if I ever see a blank post from you...or anyone.

But I will expect something totally worth the effort if I see you do it.
