Edit Facility

[Canary42]

I note we still don't have an edit facility.

What is the prognosis for such a feature appearing ?

[Tilly2]

What a spoilsport, Pixie. ;-)

I would LOVE an anonymous day!!

I know! Would have been interesting once the avatars were returned :-) ☆

Ooh... the star worked...!

[Tilly2]

On an anonymous day, I would reveal all my secrets. ;-)

If we did that I would have to stop putting kisses at the end of my post as to not give the game away. xx

Go on....

Thank you for your frank views everyone, obviously this is a somewhat controversial issue.

As an aside, on sites where editing is allowed, there is sometimes a facility to see the edit history, so abusers are soon exposed.

But I'll try to take on board the "re-read before you hit send" advice.

People already DO read their posts before posting. Sometimes I proofread mine numerous times so "KNOW" with "1,000,000%" certainty it has to right. Then the moment one presses 'submit', out of the corner of one's eye one sees an error that simply can't be there because it was checked umpteen times. Or having posted, one reads the result and finds errors immediately. So reading before posting clearly doesn't help, and I wish folk wouldn't tease by continually suggesting it.

Old-Geezer - I'm with you 100%! I'm a grammar nazi with OCD and it's driving me NUTS that I can't edit any typos! As most people know, it doesn't matter how hard you stare at something, it's only when you post (or print it!) that the mistakes become glaringly obvious. My mental state is now in turmoil...
Surely, a short period of time to edit (that's only editable by the poster) wouldn't make the sky fall in? I can't think of any other websites I've posted on, that don't offer this facility.
PLEASE?
