Why There is No Edit Delay?

Featured Replies

I love this forum software, except for one simple little annoyance.

In other sites, there was perhaps a 1 min delay after your initial post, before recognizing any subsequent edit as an edit.

Sometimes I catch a simple quick grammatical error or spelling or whatever, immediately after posting, and I correct it within the span of a min.  Often just a few seconds, especially on a quick response.  But no matter how quick you are, it gets noted as an edit with this software. 

 

Would it be possible to delay it by a minute?  That allows you a quick fix, but little else.

I see a lot of post edits, and I will hazard a guess that it is often just a post edit, rather than a changed thought.

 

Just a thought.

You edit your posts?  What is wrong with you?

Course you can always use the more editor options when creating a post and then click Preview Post and double check your post be fore posting. That makes it nice to post non edited posts then, but I agree with Drew, we do not think less of you for editing to keep your post spelling error free and good grammar. :D
