Default Thread control by user / Closing my own ??

Ok I have been asking for someone to CLOSE my "Want to Trade" Thread for a month now.
I have even messaged through the "Contact Us" Link at the bottom of the Forum.
What I really don't understand is why we "the poster" can not close our own WTT, WTB, FS, Etc. Threads

I understand that I should not have control over everything I post or create, but when I sell something or buy what I was looking for, I'd like to be able to CLOSE that particular Thread.
In my FTE Forum, which I've been a member of appx 6 years, its very simple to close our own FS, WTT, WTB, Etc. Threads & the platform looks extremely similiar. After I type what I'd like to be my final Post, saying its sold or whatever, I can scroll down to the "Additional Options" Colum & select "Close Thread after Submitting" or something similar to that phrase.

PLEASE consider adding a "post control" for us to use OR if I am currently able to do it somehow, please advise

Please link to the FS thread you would like closed and I will gladly close it for you.

Looks like you or one of the other Mod's already got it sir... Thanks
Has this ever been suggested & if so do you see us being able to do this ourselves at some point??
IMO, it would take such tedious tasks away from the Moderators & thanks for taking the time to Moderate this Forum BTW.

I'm not sure about the possibility of this happening an admin could probably give you a better idea. I was the one that closed it. I went and searched to find it. Thank you for your support.
