Can we delete obsolete forum messages?

Hi John - no one has replied to your question regarding the removal of obsolete postings from this site.  

I would like to be able to retain some information and delete the rest.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

Hi John/ Sally

 

I'm no expert but it seems that if you press the small 'remove message' you get an announcement asking if you are sure ... if you say yes then its gone.

I think that it applies only to your posting..... I notice the personal posting has...quote, modify, remove...whereas replies have quote, modify only.

I tried it earlier and one of my 'less inspired' postings disappeared completely  :)

 

There is another question and answer posting elsewhere on this subject in the forum.

 

John

 

ps.....no doubt you already know the answers ..I just noticed the date of the original posting

I believe (and hope!) that only the admins can permanenty erase postings.

 

Skrshawk (John) and I will periodically purge obsolete articles that don't have any more relevance.  I'll discuss w/him
