It is not the general policy to delete forum posts. When a post is made and people contribute answers to an issue, that then becomes part of the community resource for others to benefit from and deleting posts removes this added value. In extreme circumstances, members of the moderation team might be persuaded to remove sensitive information that has been included in posts accidentally – but your best course of action is not to publish anything that you wouldn’t want to be public. (Remember too that other sites take archive copies of the forums, and we can do nothing to control that.)

You can edit your own posts up to an hour after posting them, FYI.

Hello thanks for reply, I don’t want to delete the post but just to edit my site from there. Now isn’t anymore an information good for other people because I have edited the TAB there so why isn’t possibile remove my url from there? It is just useless.
That is a Wp test that I don’t update and I don’t control usually, so is a little dangerous for me that link!
Sorry I’m italian so I don’t speak very well english and I wouldn’t like to appear rude. I’m just asking the favour to remove my url from that topic because at the beginning I thought was possibile to edit it.
I don’t understand for a moderator why can’t help me removing an information that for me is really sensitive 🙁
Since I’m currently in a nice mood, I’ve removed all of the urls in your original post. But please be understand that we will not do this on every request. We have far more work than we can cope with as it is.

Hello thank you very much.
I’m sorry usually I link my site in my profile where I can remove it when I prefer.
Even though esmi deleted it, it’ll take a while for the google cache to remove the link. Basically once you’ve linked to a site, the damage is ‘done.’
Here’s a good rule for you: DON’T link to a site unless you don’t mind if people go there and know about it.
That’s it. Next time, we won’t remove the link cause now you know.
