If I post a thread by mistake to any wrong section, will I be able to delete that thread or only the Mod can do so?

If not, then why I can not delete my own thread, if I want to?

Only the staff here can do such things to threads.

Contact the staff in your area and they will be able to help you.

You may edit your post for up to an hour after posting it. After that it's locked and you will need to get a Mod involved for any changes. Post with care, as we rarely delete them. The general thought is "You post it, you own it"

I've always wondered about that. Thanks for explaining Chica!

Yes, that reminds me of the saying about posting stuff on the Internet...

You cannot "unring" the bell.

Yep, if you post stupid shit that makes you look bad; unless there is a very compelling reason, we aren't going to touch it.
