Well example they broke the rules and moderator warned them or something and they edited that post so it looked like they didn't do anything :s and moderators don't excatly ''save'' the post we edit. I don't know kinda

I think we should get it back Cause if like 15 Minutes Later you make a Mistake and Noticed it then tried to Edit you wont be Able to Because it will go down as Double Posting if no-one Posts eply before you do.

I personally think it's unreasonable to warn people for double posting when we're not giving them the option of editing their first post. If someone edits their post after a warning it will be obvious because it'll say "Last Edited By: Joe Bloggs on ....".

Agreed.
I still think remoaval of the edit is an act of stupidty, i use 100 (no exsgration.. i have no idea where i get the time) of forums, and habbox is the ONLY one without an edit? its just annoying, you cant ad updates to a tutoral, so if theres a mistake its stuck like that, it encorages dubble postsing as has been said, it more aless undermines how the forum should work "/

Also if you pm the forum mods and ask them if its really important then just ignore you -.-"
