Can we have an edit/delete function

We've all done it. Posted and regretted it.
It would be really helpful to have an edit/delete option, like other sites. Surely it would reduce the workload for MNHQ too.

Is there a reason we don't have one?

Hi everyone

Reduce the workload you say?

It’s always been our view that not being able to edit/delete posts ensures that those who toy with the idea of being a tad troublesome think twice before posting. Also, it tends to mean that those goadsters who don’t care who they upset appear on our radar much quicker than if they could hop on, wind everyone up, then nip back on a couple of minutes later and zap or edit their post.

To date our users have, on the whole, been with us on this stance but we’re always interested to hear what you think.

Hope this helps clarify things a little.
