A while ago, I posted a motherboard question, and put it
in the relevant manufacturers sub-topic.
I've just noticed the "General Motherboard" category,
which I thought was much more appropriate.
I noticed there was an "edit posting" button, which included
a "delete entire thread" option, though it didn't include
an option to change the sub-topic.
So I though I'd re-post my message to the right sub-topic,
and then delete the original.
BUT when I came to actually delete the original post, the
system won't let me: it says I am not allowed to edit
the message, even though it is my own!
So now I've ended up posting the same question twice, and
can't clean up.
Is there a way for me to edit or delete my own posting?
Why does the site offer me a "delete thread" button if it
doesn't work?
