30 Minute Limit for Editing

Post by Hilary » Sun Jan 23, 2011 3:42 pm

Just wanted to let everybody know that we are now limiting the ability to edit a post to 30 minutes after posting. That gives members enough time to go back and change the "oops that doesn't make sense" things that we all post from time to time, but will limit the ability to edit long after the original post. It's a pretty common rule on forums, and we're hoping that it will result in threads that will continue to make sense long after they were originally started. :roll:

Does it mean that we wouldn't be able to change the title in the first post?

Not after the 30 min. You can contact a moderator, though, and I'd imagine that we could.
