Thanks for the example :) I'll do it that way next time.

Ok its common sense time........

95% of "sellers" dont read the rules in the sale/trade section, most of us can agree there.

So when someone makes a thread that doesnt adhere to the rules, there are 2 choices, edit (with the message "not qualified"), or delete.

If you edit, they'll know to check the rules.

If you delete, they'll just remake the thread as they wont know why its gone.

Editing is the right choice in my opinion.

my quick mods drop down menu doesn't give me the option to delete posts.

Sometimes I delete, sometimes I lock and edit out links. I don't have access to the trash part of the forum, so I can't move it there. I think only gm's and admin can.

Moving the thread to the trash is pointless, or should I say [u]attempting to[/u] move a thread to the trash is pointless. At the moment, only Admin appears to be able to move things there. Which in reality- it's purpose is questionable as is. If something is actually trash, then why put it in a subforum called 'trash'- where it will sit and grow mold. Just delete it... Anyways, to delete a topic, there is a small drop down menu in the bottom left of every thread (called [color=#800080]"Quick-mod tools"[/color] , just click it select [color=#800080]"Delete Topic"[/color]. To delete a specific post- and not the whole thread, just click the red X in the corner of the exact post.

Hi, I just saw this post. Yes it was me who edited the post. I would have moved it to trash or deleted it but I have no idea how to do that. Can someone teach me how?

Thanks,
Meg

[quote="guilder1st"]It probably would have been better(easier) to move the topic to trash/ or lock the topic and edit out the first post. Instead of posting edit in every single post. It would have been quicker and easier to do for meg. I think that's probably why admin wondered who edited that. {thumb2}[/quote]

Im just wondering if youve ever tried moving something to the trash? I cant do it, can anyone?
