Inappropriate?I've been having this problem for two days. I'd like to delete some of my tweets and I can't.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?I see Twitter says they will be fixing the problem. When and if they do, where is this "trash can" seeing as I'm new to Twitter and would like to delete some duplicate posts (although I understand they are still lurking around on Twitter).
I’m confused
-
The trash can icon would be on the right side of your tweets when you hover over them on the home page. -
Ah, coz when I "hover" over my previous updates on the right side I see a star. Is that the right location to look for a trash can when it does get back working? -
Yep. It should be underneath the star. -
Inappropriate?It appears that the Deleting Posts function (i.e.the trashcan icons) was temporarily suspended to help ensure Twitter's stability during the USA's Election Day fever.
On their Twitter Status page, Twitter state:
This function will be back in all its glory tomorrow.
(whenever "tomorrow" starts in their time zone ;)
I’m happy to wait.

Inappropriate?Whew! I figured this was the case, since I noticed it disappeared during the US election hubub. The text I sent during that time took three or four hours to reach my twitter account! :P But the servers stayed up, so good job.
-
Inappropriate?It Nov 12 and the trash can icon is once again missing.
-
Anything odd that's happning today (12 Nov 2008) is probably related to this recent post.
Twitter say they expect things to return to normal over the next few hours. -
Inappropriate?i am having the same problem so i wonder why the company has marked this problem solved?
I’m mildly annoyed
-
Deletion was temporarily turned off to cope with the USA's Election Day traffic (5 Nov 2008).
That "problem" was solved by re-enabling deletion the following day, once the election fever had died down.
Today's problem (12 Nov 2008) is a new one, which - according to a recent announcement - is likely to die down over the next few hours. -
Inappropriate?still happening on 11/14
-
Inappropriate?Looks like message deletion is officially back. Was able to delete messages again. Yay!
