Let's suppose, if I took my doubt about something but I want to delete the topic, I can't. Would be possible this possibility to delete a topic
As long as a thread has no answers, we usually delete them on request; just use the "report" button. We do not delete threads which already have meaningful answers. It would be rude to do so, because people invested time and effort to respond and deleting this means that we didn't appreciate their work - which we do!José Ricardo said:Let's suppose, if I took my doubt about something but I want to delete the topic, I can't.

Only if you also post the solution!Wrichik Basu said:prevent any reply is to either post a message in bold saying "I have got a solution",
So much to do for just finding a solution on your own efforts. Tom.G is probably right.Wrichik Basu said:I have one suggestion. Say you have posted a thread, but you've found the answer soon after posting. Now, what you can do to prevent any reply is to either post a message in bold saying "I have got a solution", or edit the first post and delete everything. In that case, no replies will be generated. Then use the Report option and request for deletion of the thread.
If I was the person, I would have posted the solution (keeping in mind that the question doesn't turn out to be trivial after I get the answer). Don't know about the case of others, but the solution should be posted.Tom.G said:Only if you also post the solution!
Remember that you are likely not the only person that wants an answer.
