Cool Edited posts

Don't you just hate it when others change, or edit your posts.

I like the guys that correct people on the terminology used in a post. Is posting in yellow and enlarging the font a punishable offense? Guess you will find out soon enough.

First,
if you have a comment/question/confusion on board rules, etiquette, or procedure, we have an office that is actually subtitled to explain that:

FORUM OFFICE (3 Viewing)
This Area is For Any Complaints, Suggestions or Questions That You Might Have about forum operations.

Second,
what are you referring to?

I think it could be when people quote someone, then slightly change the text of the quote. That's the only way a member can edit another members post. Only moderators and the admin. can actually change or edit the actual post of a member.

Kinda their playground, ain't it? Seems that the thread was more aimed at the membership editing quotes. Don't much care how anyone edits mine, as long as it adds clarity or humor. Don't much care for the yellow though, makes it hard to read....

Yes, and yes. it was my understanding that the OP didn't much care for other members quoting him and then editing that quote. That was my take on it. It seemed that Lee didn't take it that way though.

As for anyone not liking the staff editing their post; they can get over it or leave, because it will be done if they see fit.

I got no 'splainin to do. I'll edit/fix and mean no harm.
I'm not sure if he's worried about my editin' or the gorilla editin'.
I like colored stuff

Sorry men. Didn't mean to create an issue. Just an off the cuff topic. No harm, no foul. I was watching the Giants win.

Uh-huh.
I initially suspected this was because an extraneous post in an ad was deleted. When you answered, I looked deeper and saw your post later in the same ad which was edited.

Thiokol gave you a break when he changed
