How do I delete a question I asked on here?

There are a couple of questions I asked earlier that people can't seem to understand so I keep getting answers that don't have anything to do with what I'm even asking here

Update:

It doesn't show how to do this in the rules section...

    A couple years ago they changed the site for the worse.

    One of the changes was that you could not delete the question once it has an answer. Bots and trolls will just put a single letter down, and if it is the only answer, it pretty much gives them points.

    The management of Y!A are fools when it comes to improving this site. That's why many good users have abandoned it.

    If the question has answers, the only real way to remove them is as violations. You will need to get friends and network to report. The easiest thing to do is go to the question and change the asker to anonymous. You will then be the only one who knows it is you. The staff in the past would remove one or two, but no longer.
