Didn't we used to be able to delete posts/topics in most forums unless someone had replied to them? :scratchhead:

I'm pretty sure it did used to be the way you say spork.
Strong with this one, the sudo is.

I think it was disabled the moment someone replies to you ... so that the reply doesn't seem irrelevant ... ?

I looked at the permissions, and unless I am missing something, I do not think phpbb3 supports deleting your own post if there are no replies yet. The only option I see is to enable permissions for users to delete their own posts, but I believe that is all posts (not just ones with no replies), which wouldn't be good as it could disrupt conversations if some members go through and start deleting random posts.
