The dots are silly.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

Thats what I use it for too,because I type looking at the keyboard not the screen and when im done I read it over,but sometimes I miss things.
Its not the end of the world,I'll live,I just dont understand why they removed it.We get a feature and loose a feature.


Edit:see it happened this time.Usually when Im smoking. :wink:

it's all good mang - I'm real anal about asthetics myself, so I have this nasty habbit of editing posts for no reason other then to change an emoticon or some shit...which, in my mind, isn't a reason to specify something had been changed (I typically prefer to only keep that 'edited by' crap in there when I change anything that's major)

and I know it's just a manner of asthetics, and it really shouldn't matter, and all that other bullcrap  :tongue:
but like I said earlier - asthetics are important to me






I say we bring it back  :thumbup:

That was changed due to a request in the mod forum but I'll post a link to this thread and see if they wish to reconsider.

Okay how about a compromise?

I changed it so that for 5 minutes after submitting a post, you can edit it without displaying the "edited" tag. After 5 minutes, the option to hide the tag is no longer available.

Hope this addresses the issue of typos.

Clarify... so is it 5 minutes after submitting the actual post, or 5 minutes from each editted post?

I edit my posts a lot... just like this one :smile: [I'd rather tack on addendums than start new posts].

If you're a lurker and never post then by checking the invisible option you wont be seen on the Who's online screen, making you invisible.

True but people who have posted recently and want to be invisible cant because if you read a post with their name in it you know when they're invisible.lol

Edit tags have rarely been available for undiscriminating use at The Shroomery. Unfortuantely a UBB update allowed the function and due to other pressing concerns at the time, it was overlooked for quite a while even though I had brought it up about two or three months ago.

The reason we like to restrict this feature is because the staff has to deal with user complaints which frequently involve member disputes between a select few. In order to make it easier for the staff to discern what actually happened and take appropriate action, it is vital that users cannot unknowningly modify their past words which may have held relevence to the issues being investigated.
