As far as I know, Captain, once you post you can't do a damn thing about it. If that's what you're asking...?confused wave

Yes, that's it. But it seems an advance enough forum, and edit features being kind of the basic stuff.
Is it a policy issue?

Yeah, but sometimes you still don't notice things until it's too late.
And, sometimes you might regret posting something.
I imagine it could limit or prevent some brawls.

Know what you mean but once you post it...it is their. I've posted and then seen spelling mistakes or left a word out and though what the heck. So you either post again to change it or leave it as you originally posted. I agree we should be able to amend our post.

I think it's a good thing, but only because it doesn't allow people to go back and change what they said if it becomes a questionable thing. It sort of keeps people "honest" if you will.

On the other hand, I would really love to be able to correct my stupid spelling errors on here! I own two message boards, and I have both of them set so that posters can edit for the first few minutes after their post is made, and then it becomes unavailabe. Seems to work well... too bad they can't do that here.
