The Cannabis.com thread edit-time vote

[mrdevious]

I think it's high time that the members here have a vote on extending the 5 minute deadline on editing our posts to 20 minutes. I'm not going for an outright lifting of the limit since editing a post a whole day later or something could really enable a person to screw up a conversation if they wanted to mess around. But damn, 5 minutes just seems a bit rediculous to me. So please vote on this most important issue that will undoubtedly change the course of all humanity.


Also, being added to the ballot is proposition 420, the ability to delete our own threads in case we feel they've become hijacked, or just regret bringing something up that snowball's into non-constructive conversation.

Agreed. But it gives us more Mod-like powers.

ya the time should be extended a bit, and for deleting i agree too maybe after like a certain post count or somehting you can start deleting your posts

[Sweeney]

Agreed.

[thcbongman]

I think it's all good, so no on both counts.

Not posts, just entire threads. I don't thionk they should enable people to actually mess up a conversation, just end one they started.

ya srry thats what i meant like delete a thread you make

I kinda agree with the longer edit post time....but alot can happen in 15mins and it will give people the chance to mess around..

I think it's cool as it is....you just have to think about what your saying before you hit post....you can always add more later.

What I do disagree with is this "thumbs up/down" thing next to the threads....seems a little pointless to me lol and makes things look squashed

5 is way more than enough. Lucky you can even edit your posts.

I've frequented forums before (with a postcount exceeding 3,500) that have no limit at all on post editing, and no problems arose
