    Re: Reputation -- Alive and Well!!

    Thank you all very much for your input so far! As for the questions asked about edit buttons...that system will remain unchanged. We like to allow a small window of time (about 10 minutes) for a member to fix a typo, a slip of the tongue, or add a quick missed thought. BUT...we don't want members going back and editing a post in a conflict and then saying, "See, I never said that!" Not that most would do that...but enough would that it is a genuine concern.

    Besides...it's hard enough to keep up with all the new posts. I personally, wouldn't have time to go back and read OLD posts on the off chance that someone had gone back and edited it to add something new. When you make a new post, it refreshes the thread and everyone interested in it will know you've posted something new and will be far more likely to read it than if you went back and edited an old post.
