Do I really have to??? Accountability. If you think you may have to delete something then perhaps you shouldn't post it in the first place.

What about topics in the "Ask Others To Identify A Disco Song"? Why can't I delete my topics that have already been answered? I think it's fair to have this option since it will reduce the time people waste looking at topics that have already been answered and make them concentrate more on the ones that still need help.

Thanks Bernie,
Steve

I gotta agree with the threadstarter. The editing of posts is crucial. For example in the "Ask Others To Identify Tracks" people constantly update their first post so it won't go unnoticed or expired links. Even in the music discussion there are people who make lists of disco classics an can't update the first post which ends up scattering the suggestions from different posters through countless pages and leads to a very unorganized thread.

Edit: Never mind it seems that you have enabled this option. Don't mind me.
