Do you mean delete a message? If so get in touch with me if you need to do that, you can't delete messages. 5 minutes is long enough for editing, any longer and the chances that someone has responded to the post increases. If you change your mind about what you wrote, say so in another post.

The nature of the forums is close to a conversation, you can't change what you've said in a normal situation, so the forums are no exception. That is why the time limit is set at 5 minutes. I don't want to change that, as it will affect the feel of the forums.
