I'm tired of people not needing the site and deleting their posts. The whole purpose of the forum is to have information for others to refer to.
Unfortunately there is a way around the time limit thing.

I can see your point, either post things you want others to refer to or don't post it.

I have noticed that too. When I got o a new thread and the original post is something that has been deleted to "Thanks" or something like that.....
but just so everyone knows I am a bad speller at first....what I mean by that is I have to proofread so get ready to see the mistakes!
Aww...Marie. Well, I guess I'll get over it. I'm a stickler with gramatical errors. But, oh well. I know why you're doing it. So, it's all good.
I can edit again! LOL...didn't even notice.

You can? where?
When I posted, the screen came up with my post and it said, EDIT
--------------------
these words I'm putting after pushing EDIT after posting the above post. Maybe it only gives u once chance to edit???

I think it gives you 5 minutes maybe?
dang, that workaround still works :curse:
Don't worry Marie, it's only a few minutes. Which is good for us grammar queens that INSIST on grammatical perfection, LMAO! If somebody gets mad about some of the responses from a certain post, it would most certainly take more than a couple of minutes to figure it out and by then it would be too late for them to edit or wipe it out, I would think. But, well, just breathe in-breathe out. In-out. In-out. Better? You better!!!!!!!!!! And I'm NOT EDITING THAT EITHER!!! LOL! We luv u~
