Can't edit posts?

[ddurant 0]

Anybody else not fond of the fact that the forums here don't let you edit posts?

Any good reasons for not asking UM to change it?

edit: woot! TY, UM!!

It seems to be it bug in the system and they are unable to fix it....

There is a timeout on post editing. It's against link spam, which posts harmless messages and edits in links days after. All that work to increase google ranks. It's a shame, but it's needed.

Heya Aike,

There is no error - the edit button just goes away, either after some timeout or after somebody responds to a post.

Administration Control Panel -> Board Configuration -> Post Settings -> "Limit editing time"

I can edit my post above, so yes, that did it.

Less spam?

Maybe renaming the "Assembly" forum to "Assembly & Maintenance" (I'm an advocate of less sub-forums instead of more)
