Hmmm. Over on the Arranger Forum I tried replying to a post, quoting from the original post. I got a message denying access to that feature. Was that part of the deal in denying participants the ability to delete posts?

Yes, sometimes it is hard to tell what NIgel is up to.
The harder it is will be to post here the les people will post. If that is the desired result then we're on the right track!

Eddie ... Are you sure you clicked on the "Reply with quote" and not the "Edit/Delete" option? I only ask because I have done that myself more than once ...

-ED- (3351) What's up with jumping on Nigel ?!?!? ... he has been and remains an EXCELLENT moderator ... The LAST thing he would try to do is make it difficult for people to post here !!!

It's working OK here on the north coast... must be a Florida thing, Eddie.

This technology stuff is quite hard for senior citizens. Right Eddie?

I tried deleting a post that I had started. I was removing some jpegs from my web page, so the reference to them in the thread would be redundant, so I attempted to delete the entire post and was denied permission to do that? So it seems up here in the Pacific Northwest, I'm experiencing something similar to Eddie.
This is not a shot at Nigel (that's something I would never do) I'm merely confirming that the situation does in fact exist.

Looks it the quote thing works after all.
No need to jump on Nigel yet.
BUt not allowing us to delete our own posts and threads is something that I'm personally not cool with.
DOn't take me wrong. THis is a great forum and NIgel is indeed a good moderator. COmparing to some Yahoo user groups where moderators do as they please this place is heaven.
But I see no real reason why I can't be allowed to delete my posts if I choose to.

Unless of coarse it is just another technical problem. After all there was this big hard drive crash.

Am I trippin' or has it just quoted Tony's post twice?

What up with that?
