I dont think you can delete threads, only really naughty ones get deleted by mods

You can only delete classified threads that im aware of and you have to have a paid subscription.

If you need a thread deleted just PM a mod or report it and ask for it to be deleted.

And if you do choose to ask the mods to delete a thread, please think about it first.

Does the thread have information in it that - although you might not want to read it - it could be useful to someone else?

I don't like seeing threads that have some good content that people have spent a lot of time writing disappear just because one poster thinks "I don't like that."

Good point. If so, ask them to edit your post(s) instead.

But can you get rid of the list of threads/posts you have started from your home page so others dont know what you've done?

Not that I know of.

But as far as it goes... if you'd be embarrassed for someone to see that you'd written something, surely you should re-read it BEFORE you hit "post reply" instead of thinking "Oh crap, I wish I hadn't said that?"
