You have no right's, MT.O is a dictatorship, or did you miss that particular PM
QuoteYou have no right's, MT.O is a dictatorship, or did you miss that particular PM In that case I am willing to betray my fellows for preferential treatment.
If possible, I vote for extending the time to edit posts to a couple of hours if possible. I think it would improve the quality of the board as it allows at least some time to edit/refine/clarify/amend posts in light of responses from other people, etc.
I think a couple of hours is better, as sometimes put together really long and detailed reviews that need a bit of "revisiting" after the event to make corrections. Gets my vote

If you have any other ideas, I am happy to hear them. It is unfortunate that I have had to do this, but I really feel that the community lost some valuable information due to someone's immature reaction. Due to the type and nature of the information lost, it is not likely that we will ever get it back, or at least spend literally years in the searching.If it had been the typical "Ben and Mike" type threads I might not have been so concerned about it, but this was a deliberate sabotage. I don't want to use the "greater good" type excuse, as that's been shoved in our faces enough everywhere else, but by the same token, I don't want to have the site's resources diminished over what amounts to a personal spat.Again, as I said, I am open to other ideas, and would be very happy to find a viable alternative since I know this is a major pain in the arse for members.Def

You saying we only talk crap??Ok, maybe you're right.
Speak for yourself
I don't believe that is an option. Unfortunately it is all considered editing by the software, and it either allows it or doesn't allow it.Def
Listen, all I want is the ability to edit other people's posts for about 10-15 minutes. Mike
