If you want a post to be deleted just edit it and write in it that you want it to be deleted
simple example:
you write a post
someone answers (and refers to your post)
you delete your post
result: confusion because the context has been destroyed along with your post.
That way you can for example delete your post if you notice just after posting that you have posted it into the wrong thread by mistake, or that you've completely misunderstood somebody.
Therefore I believe it is still best to hint towards your mistakes in an Edit (if you misunderstood a previous statement) or to message a moderator (if you believe the post really has to be removed).

There are many forums where it's allowed if it's the last post of the thread. I find that a very good settlement.
that's what i ment.
Then trash this thread.
To put an strike over a word/phrase.
no one needs that. don't push old threads for bad suggestions please
