You can edit people's posts!!!!!!!!!!


So, can I Tom. We're moderators although editing is done only rarely in my experience. I have done this same thing with embedded video posts and photos many times over the years for others.

If moderators get out of control, let me know. If I get out of control, call out the Army!

Just to be clear, I don't have a problem with moderators editing posts, but I do have a problem with the fact that it does not SAY it was edited, or WHO edited it.

That editing information usually does appear after an interval of time. In this case both Chris and myself left fingerprints behind to make things clear as it seems like it was shortly after the post was made. Again, if moderators are causing serious problems let me know. I think they show restraint and keep an eye out for productive discussion myself. There are two on this forum currently, C. Moore and BigR. The only other person with moderator access to this forum is myself. It seems to work well.

Not trying to stir up the wind censors again, but:
1.- Last time I checked this was America, I don't need anyone to moderate or modify what I think.

2.-Why don't you guys "moderate" that annoying advertisement at the top of the main page that is (has always) blocking the search box? Now that would be a good reason to flex those mighty fingers...
Moderators RULE!...dude (literally)
Sorry, lack of wind, I guess..... :twisted:

Since it's still being discussed, I think the larger issue is how many people have access to moderator rights (through acquired passwords) and that those rights include more than just the ability to censor a post. That irritates me a lot more than a censored post or locked thread, b/c that involves privacy issues.
