Editing Posts

Is there a certain time period in which one can edit their own posts? I noticed this morning I had a typo and was going to edit it; however, the edit option was not there and is was my own post. Not that it matters, just an occupational hazard -- drives me crazy when I happen across a post of mine and it has a typo.

Just curious. Thanks

Yes, after a while you can't edit stuff.

If you want me to edit something for you just send me a link and I'll do whatever you wish.

Maybe we should talk to Alex about that. I'm not sure why the restriction is there.

Not a big deal - was just a typo I saw when I was reading a thread ... I can live with it ...

Thanks though -- will teach me to proofread better in the future before posting.

I think most boards have this as the default so that people don't come back months later and change all their posts around and make the thread incomprehensible.

Makes perfect sense - I was curious - it's not a big deal and I'll proofread better in the future.
