We Demand an Edit button!

Recommended Posts

This is the only message board I''ve ever used that doen''t have an edit facility for its posters.............don''t you trust us mods?

I''m always making cock ups, bad spelling etc and it would be nice to be able to correct them.

Hands up if you agree.

Totally. I don''t think anybody will disagree with this. I hate having to make another post to correct an error, or to add something I forgot to put in the first time round.

The fingers of the angry and discontented masses move too quickly for such time-consuming frippary...

Whilst I agree that an edit function would be handy for the majority of us it must have a time limit of a couple of hours or so else some people on here <cough, cough> would alter their posts after they have been proven wrong yet again.

Yeah but I''d assume like pretty much any other forum ever, that if you edit a post it''ll say it''s been edited and at what time so I don''t think anyone would get away with that little trick.

Fair enough John, buts why get personal? weaker people could quit this MB through that kind of reply.

Myself? I won''t ever let the bastards win!

That and the fact that people quote and therefore copy (before the edit), and hence the thing they are talking about is unedited...

I bet Roeder wishes there was an edit button on last season.  There, now this topic is related to Norwich City footy.  I dare the people running this thing to move it to another forum now!
