    - Click Submit.

    HOW TO DELETE QUESTIONS

    - OPEN QUESTIONS

    -- Go to the question page.

    -- Hover your cursor to "Edit".

    -- Click Delete Question.

    - RESOLVED OR IN VOTING QUESTIONS

    -- You cannot delete them.

    I just want to add:

    CHOOSING A BEST ANSWER

    - Wait for 4 hours or more.

    - Go to the question page and read through each answer.

    - Click on the long, button that says,

    "Choose as Best Answer".

    - Rate it by the number of stars, 5 is the highest.

    - Type your comments on the typing box.

    - Click OK.

    *** You get your 3 points back if you choose a Best Answer.

    Make sure you haven't blocked any images by accident from this site, then try this.

    At the end of a person's question, there should be a big blue button called "Answer this Question." Make sure the question is still Open, not Resolved or In Voting.

    To delete a question, go to your question page first, then on the three buttons below the Report It button of your question, the very last one has a drop-down menu. Click it and select Delete This Question.

    1. Go to the top of the page and click the big "answer." button. It's in the middle and green.

    2. I don't think you can delete questions.

    Hope this helps.

    there should be a buttong that says "answer this question" under the question unless the question has already been chosen for a best answer.

    you can only delete a question before you voted for a best answer or someone already voted for best answer. click the button to the bottom right of your answer.
