Editting/Deleting threads

Recommended Posts

Well.. it would be nice to be able to edit or delete some postings or ads... I don't know why this isn't permitted... it seems like I can only edit something within a certain time frame...

A post can be edited withing 48 hrs after it was posted. Posts can't be deleted (except by the mods) because in the past some disgruntled members abused the privilege, and deleted hundreds of their own posts. This left big holes in many threads. If editing were allowed without a time limit, members would be able to effectively delete their old posts by editing the content to read (for example) "..........".
