Can we delete posts?

I just entered a duplicate post and tried to delete the second one. The system did not seem to have a function to delete a post but only to edit it. Should there be a way for users to delete a posting if they later decide they didn't want to post at all?

No, I think it's better not to have this function, you can edit if you need it, but not deleting. In case of doble post you can just write it and then some moderator will delete it.

How about a delete function for the first 60 seconds after you make the post?

Ok, I put a 2 minutes time for editig/deleting post. Unfortunately I cannot set 2 different timings for editing and deleting. See if you like it or we can switch back.
