If You can edit posts, I think much havoc could be wrought with a little creative selective editing.

More to the point... Which sub-fora? If You let me know, I'll make a test post, and You can try to delete it, see if it let's you carry through with the action. It may just be a "dead" button or link.

EDIT -

There you go... see if You can delete that.

the button is there, and i can select the thread, but it doesn't actually delete, so it's a dead link..
