The "edit" function will no longer work in the P&R section.

Prepare yourselves for multiple multi-posts!
Better than someone arguing with a post only for it to become like 1/8th of the post that is now about something else.

The cake is a lie.

Truth is a pie.

Also, I used to be a heavy poster, then I discovered this place called "outside"
Worst MMO ever.
I disagree.
Graphics are top notch(though some people might need hardware enhancement to enjoy it fully); depending on your playstyle it can have really longass longevity. Plenty of options on how you want to develop your character; many difficult quests for those more hardcore; plenty of exploration to do.

They should really patch the dating sim though, it's such a pain to get to the good ending.

I think the current branding is "It's a once in a lifetime MMO of it's kind"

Those edits got on your nerves that much?

I'm impressed. Personally I think a post "history" would be a better resolution, although much more difficult I'm certain, if even reasonably feasible.

Twofold, really.

First, I want discussion to be a little more measured, and make people think about their post first (as KN points out). Removing the ability to edit is a push in that direction, though I don't expect it to be a panacaea.

Also, while people adding lots of extra content or substantially changing content annoys me, if I hadn't gotten so many complaints about it, I wouldn't have done it just for me; there was no shortage of complaints about that kind of thing. Post history would have been nice, but the existing schema is not friendly to it, and I think from a workflow perspective just forcing people to go to the next post is a more natural fit anyway.

Also, ha girlboy made you post "Benghazi."

1. I agree and understood entirely, in reality there's no great solution.

2. Indeed, /comfort

I don't know where I stand on the pie vs cake debate.

Like, in my opinion pie will generally be better than cake but the best cake will always be better than pie.

No more editing: Ideally, this will mean that people will have to stop and think about what they're going to post, before firing off something half-baked. Worst case scenario, we get lots of wrong spelling to laugh at.
In the event of formatting issues like screwing up a link or table, should we just get a mod?

Either try again on the next post or hit preview before submit.

There's a preview function for exactly that reason. You can delete/repost as well, but abusing that as a way around the edit lock will not be looked upon favorably.

If there's a real reason something HAS to be edited in place, it's not really any different than editing post titles now, so sure.

Why are you making tables for p&r? What are you writing a guide on how to be a politician?

Oh, for sure, I just can recall moments in larger posts where errors are overlooked. I can't imagine it happening much in the future though, given the changes.
