Pete Raven 276 Posted August 6, 2015 To tie-in with the re-design of www.pinkun.com tomorrow morning this messageboard will look slightly different.Sadly it''s a new lick of paint rather than any functional changes but I shall continue to fight the good fight.The re-designed site will finally be fully responsive on all devices.

chicken 0 Posted August 6, 2015 [quote user="Indy_Bones"]"The new site will be fully responsive on all devices" - just don''t expect to see an ''edit'' button anytime this millenia....[/quote]A lot of forums I use don''t have one through choice. It prevents trolls from editing offensive posts to claim they never wrote what they are being accused of.It also encourages people to think a little more before posting and gives a more honest reflection of a user.I understand some people find it frustrating as they''d like to change predictive text errors etc. But I feel it just adds to the fun.

An edit button just encourages rushed posts and lazy thinking. All you have to do is read your post before you post it.....and if you do post and have made a mistake, it''s no big deal - or shouldn''t be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Google Bot 3,256 Posted August 6, 2015 Problem is when you combine a forum which can''t handle links and quoting of other posts very well with the lack of an edit button. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ginja 26 Posted August 6, 2015 I''m afraid the argument that trolls will abuse the edit function is irrelevant given that on a modern forum posts are clearly labelled "edited" and have the ability to see previous versions of the post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
