Default Delete or Move Posted Thread

Any idea on how to delete a post that I posted in the wrong forum or move the post to the correct forum? After 30 minutes, I gave up and just posted again in the correct forum.

This was already taken care of as one of your threads was moved to the proper location while the other was closed.

Only staff can moderate content. In the feature, you can use the Report Post option by clicking on the icon to the left of the post that you need assistance with. Or post the request here and provide a link.

Just hard to understand why the EDIT feature doesn't provide a delete command but I understand how to correct my posting mistakes. Thanks.

This is because if a member deletes their thread and there are replies, then all content is deleted. Not just the content posted by the OP (original poster). It is a policy by Administration that has been in place for years. Moderators must be contacted to perform moderation besides simple edits.
