How do you remove a thread once you have the information you need??

Don't think you can, but why would you want to?

In a couple of years someone else may be searching for that information.

Threads are not removed unless they violate Community Rules. Others may search for the same information you wanted.

For the guys with the older coaches sometimes the best information they can get about a particular RV system or problem comes from old and archived threads. The bad thing about RV's is constant change and improvement. There have been a lot of companies come and go in RV parts and manufacturers. The bouncing economy has not been kind in the industry either, with smaller and older specialized companies being swallowed up by corporations, the information on their units lost in the shuffle. Add floods, fires, tornadoes and hurricanes........there is a lot of information that just doesn't exist except for in the archives here and other RV forums on the web. It's kind of the equivalent for us of a huge stash of Hot Rod & Car Craft magazines from the 60's & 70's to vintage hot rod guy. Only this is better, we can use the Google search at the top of the page to search this entire site, and only this site!

You can ‘remove’ the thread from your view simply by pulling down the “Thread Tools” above the first post. Click “Delete Thread” and you won’t see that thread again. It is not deleted from the forum and is available to everyone else.

Also, the deleted threads are listed in your user profile, so you can see them again should you feel the need.

This is incorrect. Members may not delete threads. They can IGNORE threads, though.
