Why can't we edit posts on NS?

Just out of curiosity why can't we edit our posts on newschoolers? I try to proofread my stuff before posting, but every now and than I miss something and it'd be nice to go back and fix it. As long as there is an asterix or says it's been edited, I don't see why not...

Not a big deal, just wondering. Sorry if this has been asked and answered - putting "edit" in the search bar only brings up pages upon pages of ski edit posts...

The amount of trolling that would ensue would far outweigh the possible benefits of proofreading.

That and a lot of the time the mistakes make posts even better. If I fuck something up bad enough, I just have a mod delete the post, but that has happened maybe twice since I've been on NS.

If you post something offensive you can't just take it back.
