Should we remove the edit post feature?

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

No!

Edit: Still No!

[TheArsenal]

No.
Not on boards where people routinely write long and involved strategy articles. The ability to clarify is essential.

[lord of the mark]

No.

My typos sometimes transform the meaning of a post - like leaving out the word "not" for example.

[Dauphin]

Sorry ixnay, I already got the prize for an obvious reply.

[ixnay]

Yes.


edit: No.

[Martin Gühmann]

Of course my answer is noway. Or how should I deal with double posts if I cannot edit them down. Or how should I deal with links in my posts when they get invalid or when I make them invalid. Or how should I deal with attachments that none needs or should be removed, because it is for example a piece of slic code that noone should use, because it is so buggy that it should be better replaced by some better code. I find many reasons to keep this features. In the end I am responsible for my posts, and if I come to the conclusion that I cannot take the responsibility for my post anymore I have to change it.

[HongHu]

Some people (aka Dauphin and skanky) must be prohibited in using the edit function. Yes they must.

[obstructor]

Ye.. erm No.

[Rasbelin]

No ****ing way!

[Jamski]

Only three people on 'poly are that evil, and I keep a close eye on the other two.

I voted NO of course.

You know, some people who are evil enough could use this edit feature to really cause a large amount of confusion. I wonder if perhaps we should ban its use.
But thats a topic for another thread.

I can't be held responsible for certain posters who still can't decide what their posts will actually end up saying. And I refuse to quote the entire page whenever BC posts "just as a precaution".

Although I must admit the block of text has certainly improved since the previous edit.

Btw Spikie, you should change your name to a single syllable.
