New users are presented with a “delete button” for their posts, but when they click on it a message says “You don’t have permission to delete this topic. If you really want it to be deleted, submit a flag for moderator attention together with reasoning”.
But there is no flag button either. I think new users should be able to at least flag their own posts, or the message should be updated.
So by default, new (TL0) users do have the delete button under their topics, which when clicked displays a message that says they should flag it, which they can’t do either.
It looks like a bug.
In my opinion, they should be able to either:
Flag their own posts (preferably)
or
Have a message associated with the delete button that doesn’t instruct them to do something they can’t do
I do agree. The reason the user can’t delete the topic is because there are responses, but that error makes no sense under these circumstances, which don’t seem unreasonable.
