It's up to Phade, sorry. Try using the Preview button more.

Isn't the lack of edit button a means of trying to get people to think about what they're typing it before they post it? In the same way we should be before adding a video to the database, uploading to the donut etc. Although with delete requests nowadays... hmm

I like the way Phade killed the OT forums but we still have to wait 30 years between posts.

Hey nailz1000,

That has nothing to do with an edit button. That message has to do with post flooding. This is a forum, not a chat room. If you are making posts quickly, you are either not thinking about what you are typing or you are trying to post chat-type answers like "LOL", "x2", ":

:". Such answers do very little to further a discussion and only cause people to scroll more to get past your lack of content. A thought-out answer to any post should take more than 90 seconds (the current flood time limit).

Phade.

Although, it may compliment someone on a video or something of the like. Someone may post something about some music they made, like XenoDrake, and people make "

," "LOL," or "x2" comments. It just depends on the user.

Total time to write that message of mine: 45 seconds

I'm not saying that these items in a post are bad. I'm saying that when the entire post is one of those, the post is highly unlikely to add much to the conversation. In stead of "x2", a thought-out answer of "I agree. I would also like to add [give my perspective here]". Adding information to the thread is useful. Useful information generally requires thought and time to type. Adding "x2" does not. "x2" as an entire message is a chat-type response, not a forum-type response.
