I can't delete my own threads, and I'm supposed to be able to do that. why is it I can't do that?

Thx in advance

Are you an Admin, Mod, or what?

I mean on THIS forum (the forum.forumer.com forum).
The posting rules say the following

Posting Rules
You may post new threads
You may post replies
You may post attachments
You may edit your posts, so that means I would be able to delete them too, but I can't edit, and I can't delete.

Edit is not the same function as delete post, the latter is usually enabled only for admins or mods.
Also editting posts is set for a limited time period, it appears to be set for about an hour or less on this forum.

you mean that if you post you can only edit for about an hour?

Yes there is an admin setting per group to set a time limit for editting your own posts. It appears to be set to well under an hour here. After the time limit is up, the "Edit" button will disappear from one of your older posts.
