    Post Editing

    What is the time period that the Edit option in a post made, is no longer an option?
    As a thread starter, the Edit option is indefinate it would seem, but any post from there on, is uneditable after a given time frame..

    ...and, why is this?

    Correct, I just checked a thread from 09'...

    Checked a few more to bolster my question...

    Meetings thread from september 09'...yes, still can edit post #1.
    May 09' = yes.
    March 09' = yes.
    December 07' = yes
    June 09' however non meeting thread = no.

    So I conclude that Meetings and Events are the only threads that can be edited indefinately?

    P'raps it's considered fair that you get a brief chance to correct your occasional foot-in-mouth affairs before they're permanently consigned to electronic posterity.

    Foot in mouth statements are not always faux pas.........if you know what I mean.

    Yes, Meeting and Event threads have indefinite editing on the first post, to allow details to be changed if required.
