    Should the edit time be removed for the first post in a thread, so that you can make project threads and edit the first post?

    That seems like a good idea, because if the thread has changed drastically like they've added completely irrelevant information, then a moderator has the power to close/edit etc. It's like updating a project on a website with comments, you can see how it progressed, so sounds like a very good idea

    Should the edit time be extended to longer?

    Or should it stay as it is?

    Stay as it is, the time itself is very good. If you want to add information, do so after someone else has posted. If no-one posts after it, then it's clear that the discussion is a bit boring then. Also, if you're in a heated discussion you would be checking what you've written anyway :S

    Plus I disagree with making it a VIP feature, because it's not exactly an amazing feature to have, to edit posts at anytime plus they're capable of abusing it too. If Habbox needed new VIP features, they should find features which are amazing, not something small like editing

    I think it's fine as it is and shouldn't be changed.

    No, it should stay the same. The whole point that the edit limit was removed was so the thread starter couldn't change the first post and change the topic of the post.

    I was just thinking of it for project threads. Moderators never edit things in when asked.

    If its infinate then people will abuse it. But I DO think non-VIP should be able to Close threads.

    In which case PM me and I'll personally do it for you, moderators can do it at their discretion. It isn't in their job description so they're free to refuse, but on the other hand they won't be in trouble if they do, as long as you don't take the mick and ask for an update every day or something, in which case thyey'd understandably get annoyed and refuse.

    Well there's an unlimited time for editing, and even deleting posts on another forum I belong to, but I guess it's just down to the maturity and trust of the users.
