I can appreciate that. I want my posts to be available for public consumption. However, should I erroneously post something unfinished (which I have done), their is no deleting it at a local level. The post goes live and it becomes subject to same scrutiny as 1,000 word full review.
I'm not aware of any forum software that makes it easy for non-admins to delete an entire thread, especially when others have replied to it already (which is what happened in this case). Allowing that makes it far too easy for one user to cause chaos and stifle discussion on a board, because even though they originated a thread, there can be a lot of important information in the replies that follow.
If you post something by mistake, feel free to ping me or one of the other admins and we can either help you edit it or find another solution. We try to minimize removal of posts or threads, however.
