How do I cancel a post? From Kevin Salm: ! All newsreader software clients have the ability to cancel posts that you have written. Simply locate the target message in the newsgroup as if you were to read it. Select the post and then find the menu option to cancel it. Once replies to your message are posted, canceling your message can confuse the replies. Newsreaders may have difficulty figuring out the threading of subsequent messages now that your message is gone. The Lugnet web interface uses a placeholder for the canceled message. If a subsequent post quotes your message, that text will remain. You cannot cancel others posts. Careful thought and wording can eliminate the need for frequent canceling. |
