Accountability is nice and all, but the Org forums seem to be the only one I know where I don't have an edit button for some amount of time. I know some forums allow you to edit your posts with in 24 hours, but even 15 minutes would be good. Heck 5 minutes, would be enough to get rid of grammar annoyances. I know I've personally had posts destroyed by a messed up quote tag, that if I had an edit button, could've easily been fixed in like two seconds. From my experience, people that want to be idiots will do it with or without an edit button. Have we had many incidents in the subforums, where the edit button is enabled, actually harmed any accountability/caused any problem by people abusing the fact that they could edit their post?

I'd be willing to allow editing for 15 minutes however we can't set it on a per forum basis. There are some forums that we want users to always be able to edit their posts.
