Can't delete posts in Quip

Hi for all!
I have a problem using Quip commenting system. It all works except one thing. None of the registered users can delete his own post by clicking on Delete link. If I log in with my superuser account (i.e. account of MODx admin) I have a possibility to remove any post. Here is a link to my test site - modxtestsite.cx.ua/blog/sovetyi-agronomov/zapis-v-bloge-%E2%84%961-gruppa-sovetyi-agronomov.html It is in russian, but I think it will not be a problem to understand the meaning. I turned off activation via email, so anyone can register safely and try Quip. Or just use login test and password 123456.
Here is the code of Quip call:
```
[[!Quip@custom?
&thread=`thread_[[*id]]`
&replyResourceId=`[[*id]]`
&removeThreshold=`10000`
&allowRemove=`1`
&requireAuth=`1`
&tplComment=`tplComment`
&tplComments=`tplComments`
]]

[[!QuipReply? 
&thread=`thread_[[*id]]`
&requireAuth=`1`
&tplAddComment=`tplAddComment`
]]
```
Does anyone have an idea where the problem lies? I'm new to this so don't punch me too hard please. [ed. note: artik84 last edited this post 7 years, 10 months ago.]

In core/components/quip/controllers/web/Thread.php found code as follows:

public function handleActions() {
        /* handle remove post */
        $removeAction = $this->getProperty('removeAction','quip-remove');
        if (!empty($_REQUEST[$removeAction]) && $this->hasAuth && $this->isModerator) {
            $this->removeComment();
        }
        /* handle report spam */
        $reportAction = $this->getProperty('reportAction','quip_report');
        if (!empty($_REQUEST[$reportAction]) && $this->getProperty('allowReportAsSpam',true) && $this->hasAuth) {
            $this->reportCommentAsSpam();
        }
    }

That means that to delete a post one should be a moderator of the thread(&& $this->isModerator)? Is it a bug or feature?
