Guest efctaxi Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 (edited) Would it not make for cleaner pages if there was a delay before the forum wrote ' this post has been edited ' etc etc ? Sometimes you spot a typo , or remember something to add just after you post . Yes , we can proof read everything , but that's a different beast .

Yes , we can proof read everything , but that's a different beast . See below I agree .. I'm so scared of that edit line that I tend to leave typos in!

MikeO Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Not a bad idea I don't think....another forum that I post on has the delay and it's useful for people (like me) who don't like to leave typos. I've had a quick look in the control panel and can't find how to enable it, or even if it's possible with this board. Have to get Louis to have a look .

Also it seems the Mods on this forum never have that edit line at the end of their posts even though they do edit . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Also it seems the Mods on this forum never have that edit line at the end of their posts even though they do edit . We do, it's the admins that don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Also it seems the Mods on this forum never have that edit line at the end of their posts even though they do edit . Do you mean when we edit our own posts or somebody elses? In either case we have the choice....can add the edit line or not, along with the reason, so I tend to decide on individual cases....depends whether the edit needs explaining to everyone or just to the person who posted it, in which case I'd pm them.

Bill Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I would'nt think that bad enough to warrant an edit, as only picky smart arses would point it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's called guess what I was going to write , without me having to write it . Things will remain much more harmonious that way .
