I,like some but unlike many,make many eoors when posting.Spelling (yes,I use spell check...usually),punctuation and other errors are often made by me.Is there a way that FR can set up something like what I've seen on other forums (car forums,for example) that allow the poster to delete of edit a post after "post" has been hit? I know nothing about computers and,therefore,don't know how difficult and/or expensive it be,if it's possible at all.Thanks!
Why would such a feature aid trolls? I honestly don't know.My experience suggests that the old timers here,along with the moderators,have trolls under good control as it is.
Now, can I "edit" my post?
I understand that forums with an editing feature do signal that the post has been edited. Polite people mention the reason they went back to edit the post. In practice, many do not.
Upgrade the software....are you kidding!!!??? Blasphemy!!!
FR Fund Raises 8 months of the year for this finely tuned forum software.....
LOL. I had a boss who had the habit of sending emails to all the national guard shops in Texas that were close to the second one you posted, preacher. I begged him to let me proof read his emails so he would not look stupid. I finally got him to turn on the automatic spell check before sending email option. Same thing for the state’s payroll manager. Many of her emails made no sense at all.
