Can you disable all members from deleting their forum replies?

At the moment if you create a reply to a forum post, as a member, you are always able to delete your own reply. In some cases if that reply has nested replies, you will even be able to delete the child replies to it.
Basically deleting other member's content.

There is a way to disable editing and deleting original forum threads but is there also a setting somewhere to disable this for replies?

  • So to be clear, permissions as in the screenshot above is not related to editing one's own, it is global allow all.  Without this permission a user can edit their own thread or reply.   You can however go to administration->Applications->Forums>Editing Tab and set the Edit Age Post Body limit to a low minute value, which applies to both replies and threads but this will apply to every forum on your community.
