Another thing I hate about that place
try to edit a post after even 30 seconds and it shows as an edited post..
To me it either makes it look like you changed your mind as to what you wanted to say.. so making you look weak. Or stupid for not getting it right the first try... Pfffft.. I catch many typos later I wanna fix... so guess I fall under stupid |

I edit posts all the time. I don't care. Typos on an iPhone are a part of life.

I agree, hate that damn line across the bottom of my post. It should give you 5 minutes to correct stuff, like HERE!

Though it's just an annoying line of text to you guys, it is also a link to mods...Allows them to view all versions of a post and see what changed. Since it was extremely rare I ever looked at that to see the original post, and since it stores both copies of such posts and is a waste of space...I eliminated the logging of post edits. I did that maybe 6 months ago as an experiment, but have found no reason to reinstate it. Quote:
Some people like to delete/repost for the purpose of thread bumping, which I find annoying because we (mods) still see the 2 (or more) identical posts. This was a favorite tactic of LATB, in fact in the months preceding his banning last year, he amassed about 500 deleted posts doing this. Many of them were delete/repost/delete/repost to bump threads until someone took his bait. Many others he'd post and just delete a minute later, apparently believing he could type out his thoughts and remove it before anyone saw it. He clearly had no idea all those posts remained. As a general rule of thumb that applies to just about everything on the internet....There really is no such thing as delete. If you see a delete option available to you, it only means "hide". Once you post something, almost never will it be removed completely. Especially since members have the option of receiving thread updates in the form of subscription emails and mobile push notifications. Editing or deleting a post after the fact can't possibly retrieve those original copies from someone's inbox or notification screen. |

If it makes you feel any better, I only edit to either fix typos, and or add something that I forgot to post....
