Unable to delete tweets (no trash icon)
Cannot delete my tweets. I don't even have a trash can icon for my tweets either on my home page or my profile page. I'm using Firefox 3.x if that helps.
I’m annoyed

I have no trash can to delete old direct tweets. This happened within the last week or so.

i think Twitter users are clicking on the star here without reading what the star means. -
I am so frustrated.......I keep losing my trash can, and the tweets just keep piling up..........guess I am a neat freak, but want my trash can back.

Neat freak? Do you delete tweets when they are old? Twitter is a microblogging service, you're not supposed to do that.

Inappropriate?would be nice if someone from tweeter could explain why they decided to make tweets eternal, against the simplest and oldest rules of user-friendliness: let people undo their does
I’m confused

I am at the point of pulling my hair out.....because my trash can symbol has disappeared, and I cannot seem to get anybody to fix this for any length of time.....then it disappears again.

Inappropriate?Well at least they know it's happening. Better than nothing but this is frustrating.
I’m glad I'm not alone

Inappropriate?I have this problem too and it is really driving me nuts. Up until 2 weeks ago, I had all of these icons on my tweets but now they are no longer there. Is there someone out there who can help us? The interesting thing is that it is only missing on 2 of my 3 computers. One on Explorer 7, one on Explorer 8.
I’m frustrated
