Hi arora007,

I've let DavidP know about your feedback, he'll get back to you on that.

However, I just wanted to know what delete button are you talking about?

The delete button seems to be appearing only when one posts a message and the page has redirected from
"Your message has been entered successfully." , infact this button remain there for a few minutes so that one can decide whether to delete the post or let it remain.

I just tested it!! cool feature...

btw thanks to you dana and david! the BTG team rocks!!

Oh but you can only do that for your own posts, right?

Hi Arora,

Glad that you like the feature! Eric and I had been talking about putting this feature together for a while. I finally got around to it last night. We're going to make one more round of updates to the Reviews site in the next week. Once that's done, then we're going to start investing a lot in adding new features to the forums. I hope that you'll like the other features we're going to release.
