this message appears instead - The time allowed for deleting this post has expired. If you need this post edited or deleted, please report it to a moderator using the report button.

Deleting posts is much like editing posts - there's a 24 hour time limit in which you can do so, like there is on many forums.

Much as the alert message states, if there's a valid reason that a specific post needs to be edited or deleted, then report it and a moderator can do so.

so when did this time limit start? must be yet another improvement.

Yes, Admin has implemented it recently as part the forum upgrade.

the 24 hour time limit is wrong. i tried to delete a post from a few hours ago and got the same message.

Admin has checked this and it was set to 1000 minutes, not 1440 as I suggested. The time frame for deleting a post is now the same as it is for the edit function - 1440 minutes (24 hours).
