I want to know if we have the ability to delete others responses to our posts. Do we?

I don't believe so. At most you could report a person's post for inappropiate content which may otherwise be harmful to others. Just a thought though. :/

You do not have the ability to delete things. If there is a valid reason for a response to be deleted, once you have reached (100) in activity, you would be able to use the ! button, explain why it needs to be deleted and request that it be deleted. If something is blatantly wrong, before you have reached (100) other people who are participating in your discussion may choose to report something as abuse. You also can directly message on of our admins, Alex, by going to your message page, putting in GoAskAlice as the recipient. Send your message or request, Alex will get back to you. That is one person who does not have to be on your friend list for you to message them.

I thought we could report abuse anytime, but we had to be over 100 for the ratings we give to stick?

Anyone can use the [!] button. It is just the [+] and [-] ratings which don't work until you have a UR of 100.

Thanks both of you for clarifying. When I joined all the buttons were there from day one, so I have not had the experience of needing the 100. I think that started several months after I started. LOL

Hi Wumpy, unfortunately it's not possible to delete our post. It could be a nice feature expecially when we do mistake. For example the other day I posted a comment twice for mistake and I wanted to remove it and I couldn't. I hope Mylot will add soon this feature that is very useful.

Thank you Hatley, I didnt' know about how to delete posts! I don't see your comment twice here, maybe they've already deleted it. Cheers :)

hi wumpypancakes no not to just delete it as you do not like it bu but if the response is insulting and mean you can hit the report button and ask mylot to delete .then its up to mylot if they think the response was insulting they will indeed delete but you cannot do this yourself. just think of all the problems if we could just delete anyone else's responses. Why would we want to do that?

No chance of deleting the discussion by own but if you report to admin and admin feel its necessary then it may be deleted.
