Isn't this on the FT Community thread? Is it perhaps just the replies at issue?

mgm: Okay so here is my story: I tried to reply to a post on the board about gay flyertalkers and thought it wasn't posting because senile as I am I was looking at the bottom of page 1. I have now found my replies and tried to delete the text as you suggested and could not do it. So please note I am not ignoring your suggestion, I am just computer illiterate or perhaps just message board illiterate. Sorry for the trouble.

Marysunshine,
Don't worry, it's no big deal. I'm not all that senile yet and I [i]still[i/] have troubles with my posts
Besides, I enjoyed reading yours three times!

You can't actually delete posts, but you can edit the body of the message so it just says something like:

Another option would be to just post once. It does become annoying, though, to think you have posted something and not see it show up for a couple hours sometimes. I have learned that once I hit "Submit reply," it'll eventually show up.

thank you this is constantly happening.I notice often that there have been update posts and I cannot access the latest. Some stuff seem to take days to post. What I do (as I cannot think of how else to do it) is to go into "Reply" and then review the topic and that seems to have everything there.
I notice that all this started happening after the New Improved Board came into being.
