If a student posts a perfectly civil reply that has absolutely nothing to do with the topic of the discussion can I delete the post? So confusing to other students. I would love to hear your opinion.
As long as you have a role with permissions in the course (Teacher, Ta, etc.) that allows you to delete discussion posts, then yes, you can delete the post. That is the technical answer.
As far as it being confusing to other students, as a teacher, I would reach out to that student before deleting and ask for clarification in their post. What were the intentions or message they are trying to convey? Did they post to the wrong location? Etc. Depending on the response, I would consider deleting the post or asking them to resubmit the discussion. Or if it is a graded assignment, I would grade the post as-is. But I would talk to the student first and base my action on what they have to say.

I have now had a few cases of students' responses in New Quizzes not being recorded. Normally, students get a connection error and can restart, but here they get new questions one at a time with no indication of a problem until they try to submit the exam and find that they can't submit it. Students are losing 20-90% of…
We assign coursework by section, and teachers enter the transfer grades on each assignment from before the student’s enrollment date. However, those grades do not satisfy the modules’ “Submit the assignment” requirements. Students still have to go back to the beginning of the school year and submit blank documents and…
