How do you delete or remove the entire post (including the title or heading) in case you make a mistake so that it won't appear on the thread?

I don't know if a non-admin you can remove the thread but you can edit the title by editing the thread's first post 😉

Thanks. I deleted/changed the title already; but I wish there's a way to remove the thread by the one who posted if it's just a simple mistake so that it won't be space-occupying.

Hi @flybywire

I was wondering if you could kindly change the title on this thread to: Is Ernie Gee out of business?

I just hate wasting bandwith starting a new thread to which maybe few to no-one is going to reply to, and in view that your thread is still available, I might as well use it for this purpose.

 

Ernie Gee is the owner of G-Factor Models, and I've been intending to reach out to him to see whether he's still in business.

Hope you don't mind.

Thanks a lot.

Cheers,

 

Gwen

Hi Gwen, I don't mind at all; but I guess it'll just create more confusion to the readers, coz they'll be seeing contents that are totally not connected to your title. I guess it will be more prudent to just put up a new thread and let nature takes its course.

Changing title early on would have been clever, but ... this thread has already gotten 500 views (including mine) thanks to @flybywire's scintillating title.

Hi fbw,

Oh, many thanks anyway; never mind. I just thought it was a great opportunity to make bandwith on this forum count for something, now that the original thread is not used.

Hi Gene,

And do you happen to know whether or not Mr Ernie Gee is still stocking up his G-Factor Models brass bits to the shops? I've seen some 1/48 items available once again here and there, but not the one I'm after (G-Factor 1/48 F-105D brass landing gear for the Revell/Monogram kit). Out of a whim, as suggested by @Dutch, I bought the Aerocraft brass bit but, as warned by Dutch too, it doesn't fit the Monogram kit, as it was devised for the Hobby Boss one. 

 

Cheers both,

 

Gwen

No idea, Gwen.
