Why can't we delete posts anymore?

Haven't been able for at least a month now. The delete button is missing.

^ Concur - this was my experience just a half hour ago. No edit button, and I was within just a few minutes of creating the post. Edit button that used to be down by "Save", "Go Advanced", "Cancel" is gone.

The Delete option should be back now if you try to do so within the usual 15-minute window after posting. Please let me know if you still can't see it.

Thanks!

Delete button is gone again, at least you can't delete a thread after it's created and no one has commented on the thread yet. You used to be able to delete threads years ago

You should be able to delete your thread by simply deleting the first post within the usual 15-minute window, but please note this will only work if there are no other replies yet.

Nope, I couldn't delete my first post, I noticed it was in the wrong thread immediately and I tried to delete it but the button is missing. We can delete posts but not threads or the first post of a thread.
