Default Deleting a previous post?

Can someone let me know how to delete a previous post I created on the TOTV?

I'm having a very tough time trying to do it.

Edit the post and enter any three characters. I use ///

I haven't found a way to actually delete a post such that your name no longer shows up and judging by the number of "///" posts I'm not alone.

Thank you. I never knew what the "///" meant. I thought it was someone's way of "following" the thread.
