Is there a way to delete a topic/thread that you created?

I made one but want to delete it to avoid clutter.

Report the first post and in the reason box say “Please dustbin my topic to avoid clutter.” This will then let the Scratch Team know and dustbin the topic (not closing.)

Oh and I forgot to mention your post will probably be moved into topic 412 in forum 2 (forum 2 is the dustbin forum)

This is the correct course of action, but I’d like to add that this doesn’t guarantee it will be removed - they don’t like to always delete things on request nor encourage that as it takes time.

Also, NotK3ndricAltAgain, I don’t believe dustbinned *topics* are moved to Topic 412 - it would be challenging to move an OP specifically into another pre existing topic without merging, and merges aren’t a simple task. Instead, I think they just move the topic directly to Forum 2.
