Do regular users no longer have the ability to delete posts? I just tried deleting a post but got the "Sorry, only forum leaders can delete posts" message.

It was changed recently. Here's why. When someone is permitted to delete his own posts, and he deletes a post that started a topic, the entire topic gets deleted. This was discovered when one of the users here deleted a whole bunch of topics that he had started. When Lud realized this, he disabled the delete capability.
You can still edit a post down to a single period. Or, you can send an e-mail to Lud asking him to delete a post for you.
