hi swamper, did the forums suddenly restricted the priviledge of deleting our own posts/threads or is there something wrong with my account. i also noticed that i can't put my birthday in my profile either.

birthday's were blocked from accounts because alot of jackass's kept changing it to the current day and registering new names just to get their names on the site page, sad, and it clogged it all up with 20 names so it got stopped. you can only edit posts after 3 hours i believe, and then its only mods who can

actually i couldn't delete my own post or thread 2 minutes after let alone 3 whole hours. plus, other people can input their birthdays. i don't even have the field anymore. i used to but no longer is it there.

yeah seriously. the box is checked and i hit delete but it just says i don't have any rights to do it. i don't delete my posts very often but when i do need to, i can't do it.
