Add FAQ entry - editing posts


Website Feedback


Hello,

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this. I am wondering if an entry could be added to the Messageboard FAQ ( http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/faq ) that talks about editing your own posts. It looks as though you have a limited time to edit your own posts, and the reasons for this have been mentioned in several threads:

* http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/paizo/websiteFeedback/archives/editing Posts
* http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/paizo/websiteFeedback/archives/editabl ePostsPlease

Do you think an entry could be added to the FAQ that mentions these policies? In case it saves Paizo employees any time or effort I have created a draft FAQ entry below.

Thanks! :)

draft entry:

"Can I edit my own posts?" -OR- "Help! I can no longer edit my message!"

Messages you post to the Paizo messageboards can be edited for up to one hour after submission. After this time messages cannot be edited. There are several reasons for this policy: firstly it prevents people from "rewriting history" by changing a controversial post; it also helps conversations flow the way most people expect, with newer information being added at the bottom; finally we hope this policy encouraces people to think carefully before they post.
