Isn't there a more subtle way to deal with edits of comments and forum posts? It would be nice to fix a typo or add clarification without having the timestamp of absentmindedness branded so prominently to the message. I'm not saying it shouldn't be there at all. But a lot of times, it takes up more space than the message itself. Maybe smaller text and/or something in light gray? Just a thought...

I would like to see a short grace period without a stamp to go back and fix typos. |

I think we should be able to do that right up until the next post. Is it possible to check whether someone has hit the 'quote' button and is composing a post?
A no subsequent post AND a no open quote condition should allow us to edit without the time stamp thing.
Failing that, a time window would be better than the current situation. |

That's already there if it's changed during voting. |

As much as I *need* this feature myself, it is really rendered unnecessary if one simply uses the "Preview" button provided below the text composition field, right next to the "Post" button ... |

Yeah and we would all save time by reading instructions..... I think a short grace period is a good way to deal with it BUT it will cause issues where someone quotes something within the grace period... Might be more of an issue on the rant board hey :-) |

Pilgrims? Ah, yes.
And then, some of us just see a lot of John Wayne pictures...
(naw, I didn't really edit it, I just wanted to see the message)
