ya i agree a 15-20 second edit period, but other than that, people could take back stuff that makes them look like assholes, and we like to know who the assholes are

I think so too. I think that a preview thing would be good as said above.

reread the post yourself
and no editing is a bad idea.  If someone quoted you and then you edited it to something completley diffierent it could cause hell.

well... maybe re-read what you typed in the box where you type it? It's not that hard and it takes only about 5 seconds..

I see no reason to not have a preview button. It could be right next to the reply button so you would only have to press it when you want. It would still allow for hilarious fawnts too.

This is a suggestion that comes up all the time. A few good solutions were suggested:

1) Editing available within 1 minute of posting
2) A "Preview" option before posting threads

This would fix a lot of the problems with posting photos and links and stuff. I think these are seriously good suggestions that should be looked at!
