Matthew White Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 (edited) Is there a way to delete our own posts in the forum? If not, can we please have a way to do so? I know we can edit our post title to show the content is deleted but I think being able to delete an entire post would be much better so as to free up the forum of invalid posts just saying 'Deleted' if we'd rather delete the post entirely. Also, a dark mode setting would be great! Edited September 14, 2022 by Matthew White Added Dark Mode Request Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertWS Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 If people reply to your post and you delete it....what happens to the replies? The would become lost orphans. We can't have that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had added the 'Super Dark Mode' extension in the last couple of days as it happens but removed it today as I noticed Chrome was showing some processor use in task manager all the time when this extension was switched on and never dropped to 0% as it does most of the time usually when there's no activity in Chrome so was worried this extension was doing something iffy. Probably just me being paranoid though lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 For Chrome I use https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dark-mode/dmghijelimhndkbmpgbldicpogfkceaj?hl=en It's not always useful and will invert some images but user can turn it on/off at will from the tool bar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be PO'd if my intelligent and insightful and often humorous replies got deleted by some numbskull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
