It was brought to my attention that once a poster receives a reply to an ad, the ad can no longer be deleted. I didn't think there was much use in replying to ads when we have the private message option, so I removed replies to give the original poster a chance to delete their for sale ads.
I'm sure there may be mixed feelings about this, as there were with me, but the pro's outweigh the con's. If I can figure out how to allow the OP to delete a thread with replies, then I will reactivate them. After spending an hour and a half on it, I'm really not sure if I can... although I didn't think there was a quick reply option but I found that, so who knows.
Thanks.
