    Default Time Limit on Editing Posts

    I think a plugin should be added to the forum so people can't come back four hours later or w/e and edit their posts. This defeats the purpose of replying to a post when what was said has been changed after the fact. just my two cents but it's annoying as hell.

    lol well this could be a good idea, maybe just a 10 minute window just in case there is a spelling mistake!

    Agreed! And the 10 minute or so window is a good suggestion too.

    This would totally screw up a number of forums....

    Off the top of my head, it would almost completely destroy the way the signup chain threads run....

    Most members once they have been around a while realize that editing posts after the fact is usually a bad idea....

    I would support this if the restriction was only placed on public members....

    We can always spank private members that edit their posts and screw up threads on an as needed basis....or let Giggles at em.....lol

    I agree.. It's pretty annoying when people go back and edit their posts making the threads illegible after.

    That's a good idea, in the first place members must first think of what they will reply before posting it. Maybe a minute or so in correcting a typo mistake will be nice to implement. Admin can talk this over
