"Remove" icon

[Pearl L.]

Can anyone tell me why many of my posts would suddenly have "remove" icons beside them? Do I corrupt them if I make a change after I post?
I also changed my nickname for clarity. Would that affect them?

There has been a few gremlins in the works at the moment mate, I will put your problem to the administrators with the rest of them. He is slowly working his way through each we come to.

Sorry, I can think of no other reason for that warning mate.

Okay, thank you. I won't worry, then. I thought maybe I had committed some cardinal sin and the Eliminator had come for me.

Not yet mate, not before the first hundred posts.

I think you get the 'Remove' option on your own posts, just in case you change your mind about posting it. I removed one of mine from a thread a few days back because I wasn't happy with it...

If you mean the Remove option at the top right of your post (see image), then you will always get that option on your own posts, unless the post starts a thread and then you won't because removing it would remove the thread.

Ahhh...that makes perfect sense. Thank you. But why do only some of them have the "remove" button? Only two of my posts begin a thread, so it's not that. Not that it matters. Now I'm only curious.
