Hey @sam @codinghorror and others!
I feel like people should be able to close there own topics, becuase on our forum a issue is there’s a time where leaders are never on and I want one of my topics closed and I can’t get it closed!😟
I hope you consider this in the next update!
Bye.

There are a lot of topics already on this subject

> Is there an easy way to allow regular users to be able to archive a topic they started? I don’t think this feature would be abused for what I’m considering using discourse for. For example for a buy and sell category, where the item is sold, or maybe a category discussing events, where the event is over, it would be good if the original poster could archive the topic themselves. A point in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks!

You may want to join one of those other topics and ask about expanding it beyond TL 3 to TL 2 or what have you. As you seem to want it for all TLs.
