Blarghagh Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Yeah, I don't think this is currently a priority. It's a seriously minor inconvenience.
Marceror Posted September 15, 2014 Author Posted September 15, 2014 Agreed that it's a minor annoyance, but I'm still hopeful that the appropriate OE team member might stop in for 30 seconds and tell me to piss off, and that he'll/she'll do this when hell freezes over. Then I'll stop wondering about it. "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke

Hiro Protagonist II Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 I've been using the 'preview post' button more often now than ever before. It's a great feature and good to see how your posts come out. Especially when you're multi-quoting and breaking up quotes to answer specific points. I'd recommend take the extra 5-10 seconds to preview it before hitting the 'add reply' button. When you're finding mistakes and doing edits, just hit preview again and it updates your preview. 1
Marceror Posted April 16, 2015 Author Posted April 16, 2015 (edited) Time to resurface this post. Hey there Obsidian, any response on this yet? Edited April 16, 2015 by Marceror "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke

Marceror Posted March 17, 2016 Author Posted March 17, 2016 I guess it's been almost a year since I posted around here, and I had blissfully forgotten about this website's strange quirk with respect to marking threads as edited. Didn't take long for me to be reminded though! So, if we can't get a more reasonable window for marking posts as edited, any chance we can a "reason for edit" field added? Seems like this should be a minimum requirement given the strictness around this website's policy. .... "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke
Marceror Posted March 17, 2016 Author Posted March 17, 2016 I'll ask. Forum feature upgrades, etc. are the domain of the Administrator God... I don't believe in the Administrator God anymore. It seems someone just made him up, so they wouldn't feel so alone during those long nights searching for answers... on the forum. I can find no evidence that he actually exists. I ask for a sign. Just a small sign that he's real. But I'm just getting dead air. I have lost my faith.... 1 "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke
Messier-31 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 I have the same thoughts, Marceror. It seems we all are in some sort of editorial grace limbo. *screams of innocents in the distance* It would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air...
GhostofAnakin Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Obsidian should add this edit feature as a reward tier for their next Kickstarter.

Lexx Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 I am so used to seeing "edited" under all of my posts. In fact, right now I can't remember any post where I didn't need to change something right after hitting the submit-button. And I bet right after writing this post, I'll edit something as well.

I'm right there with you. I tend to type too quickly, and invariably type a teh or something similar. I notice after posting and quickly correct it.

Marceror Posted March 23, 2016 Author Posted March 23, 2016 Measure twice, post once Good advice. It will never happen. If I'm sending an important email to my boss, I'll measure two or three times. Not for Internet forum posting. Type fast and move on... unless I happen to notice a typo after posting. Then my OCD kicks in and forces me to fix it. This isn't usually an issue at all, except for one web forum in particular.... "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke

Marceror Posted December 3, 2016 Author Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Incidentally, I posted (and edited) the above post at 9:37, not 9:43 as the forum indicates.

Fionavar Posted December 3, 2016 Posted December 3, 2016 Other than the clock concern, editing is currently no longer time limited as this has not been misused as it has been previously. As I look into the time for the server, which may be out of our hands (per se), are thee other experiences about the boards that might require tweaking?
