    Hi I'm relatively new to boards and just have a few questions please , I have read through the beginner's guide , I want to know how to delete a post which the beginner's guide does tell how to do , but when I click on the post I want to delete there is no edit button ? Is this because the thread is more than 48 hrs old ?

    Also how can I change my username ? thanks for any replies .

    When you edit a post, under the advanced option, there's an option to delete.

    But, you can only edit a post within a timelimit of 48 hours. After that you'll need to ask the appropriate mod to delete/alter it.

    Username changes are only for subscribers, though you could subscriber for the minimum one month and get one.
