BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / How do I delete a thread?

**Posted by Ah-chie** January 26, 2015 7:20 pm

I inadvertently started a thread when there was already one on the same topic (I thought I checked through but I must have missed it - got to get my lenses checked!). So could someone advise me on how to delete a thread.

Thanks in advance.

I can delete it for you, if you like. Or if you feel you're making an important point that hasn't been made before, or don't want your post to be lost forever, I can merge your topic with the duplicate one and it will just be added like a comment.

Thanks for the info - I think I would like to have it merged with the existing thread. Do I have to PM you or can you do it with me just telling you it is my thread titled "Ben in Stuart: A Life Lived Backwards". I think I would like to keep my first post and have it added to the thoughts on the existing thread.

Thanks so much.

If you give me links to both topics, that would be great. Thanks!

Is this what you need?

This I think is to the actual thread titled "Ben in Stuart: A Life Lived Backwards" -
http://sherlock.boardhost.com/viewtopic.php?id=6111

But it is in this section "Benedict's Non-Sherlock Work" with this link -
http://sherlock.boardhost.com/viewforum.php?id=44

This is the link to my initial post, which I would like transferred over to the appropriate thread -
http://sherlock.boardhost.com/viewtopic.php?id=6111

The next two replies after my initial comment are from Vhanja and Schmiezi (I don't know what to do with them). Vhanja replied to my post and Schmiezi informed me in her post that I had repeated the topic (so it isn't really a reply content-wise to my post).

Hope the link I got you are the ones you need.

Thanks again for your help and I apologise for the trouble.

Okay, I've done it! You can find your old message in the original thread now:
