edit our posts after 15 minutes? Is it so we buy VIP? If it is, it's not working. Get a job and earn some money that way. Infact, most of the rules on this forum either suck on contradict themselves. And the staff are hypocrites. Whoever wrote the rules deserves to be shot as as soon as possible.

Your question has been answered below :} So you can't remove a Moderator's warning..
I would like to point out however, that it is the same for VIPs.

It's to stop people remove rulebreaking after the moderators have dealt with ti. So the evidence is there.

I believe it's because users use to edit moderator edits. With the expiring time, they won't be able to do so (unless they edit with in the 15 minutes, which normally doesn't happen).

The main reason is people use to edit their posts to make them say something totally different. Ie make fun of someone and insult them then after 1 hour or 2, they would edit them.

VIPs have the 15 min limit as well so no-one gets shot :p.

Not me.

Even after the 15 mins if you need to add info you're allowed to double post.

Its too much hassle to monitor every single edit a moderator makes and check that it hasnt been removed.

That's a pritty stupid reason to take away the edit button..
Well at the moment, thats how it stands :).

Why? Can't you just double post now?
Yeap you can double post if you want to add information to a thread (After the 15 mins edit time is up)

Not me.

Even after the 15 mins if you need to add info you're allowed to double post.

no there's nothing really bad about it...
Exactly :).

Powerhungry mods who need to be sacked give you an infraction for double posting even after 15 minutes. And who cares if mod edits are changed? Can't they just quote the message and add it in a seperate post?

If the 15 minutes were up, you added new information to your previous post and you got infracted report it here: http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=279102


The edit rule is good, especially how the double posting rule has changed to make it function well.
If a moderator did quote it then the person could change their post and say "THE MOD CHANGED IT! LOOK AT MY POST! HE CHANGED THE QUOTE!"

What I would like is that you are allowed to edit your post, until somebody replies to it. As I find it very strange if you are allowed to edit your post after somebody has already replied to it.

Unfortunately this is not an option in vBulletin, so we decided to set the 15 mins time limit.
