I think we should have a function that allows us to go back and edit any posts after we have posted them
I've had it a few times where ive posted on a thread only to notice after ive made a spelling cock up and had to delete the post and re post it, typo corrected, and i know other do the same as you see posts commenting they have deleted cause of typos, this just leave the threads with a fair few empty posts, as it does not delete the post all together just the font
how much easier would it be to just have a edit link so you can re open the same post, edit you typo and re post it?! |

Not 100% sure on this, but as the forum is non-html (for users security) that may be hard to do.
Also, looking at the way that some forum threads go (ie downhill, rapidly) Im sure some users would post or comment on something, get a negative response from the other forumites and then go back to edit/delete the original post to make the others look daft.
Have seen similar happening.... forum posts been started, not going the way that the OP wanted it to and then for the OP to ask for the thread to be removed by mods. Same would happen if a user could edit/delete their own posts.
All in my opinion that is, lol

But that wouldn't happen if a time, eg 5 minutes was allowed for editing, then after that time elapsed editing was no longer possible.
That's how it worked on LS and it worked fine |
