How To Delete A Post in Steemit: Step-By-Step Guide
Sometimes you are posting compulsively until you post something you regret later so you want to delete it, but sadly you can't. Since blockchain is immutable you can't delete a post once it is created, but you can edit it for a limited (one week) time only. One method to edit the post you intend to delete is to clear the content and change the title to [Deleted].
Below is a step-by-step guide on how to do it:
1.Select the Post you wish to delete
Make sure the selected post is not 7 days old
2.Select 'Edit' at the bottom of your Post
3.Edit your Post title to [Deleted] and the content to [Empty]
4.Finally, select UPDATE POST.
If your feed is like this, then you are done.
So be careful with what you post, a downvote by people with large Steem Power hurts a lot. I only realized this until I got one single downvote which worth -100% of steem rewards. Luckily I found out how to edit my post few days before my reward payment.
Checkout http://www.steemd.com to explore the Steem Blockchain and http://www.steem.com/@yourusername to check your personal account or others activity in the blockchain. Checking the blockchain is a good way to make sure the update you made really got updated.
Thank you! This worked for me ^.^

There was a glitch when I tried to post and ended up posting more than once. If I try to remove all content as you suggest the Update button does not work as fields are required.
that's really helpful, but what about the SBD? will it be refunded?
