And that my friend is why BP.net is in a league of it's own. We don't operate the way other forums do.Originally Posted by JohnNJ
The primary reason to encourage editing and not multiple posts is to reduce the clutter.The person that pays for this forum must have unlimited funds because most forum owners would never encourage the number of repeat posts and photo downloads this site has. And to save every post even though the same topics are repeated ad nauseum, something I have contributed to, is unusual.
I work on (mod, super mod and admin) and frequent 6 forums daily and 25 others regularly and the posting rules are very strict. The rules all work to the same end - reduce bandwidth use and storage because both cost money.
Whatever works.
We're here to help if that means that the same question gets asked twice a day every day for every month. We can answer the user directly. We're here to help promote this hobby and to educate keepers on a personal basis.
