Would it be possible to change the amount of time you can edit a post before it says "Edited by..."?

It's annoying when you make a spelling mistake and you fix it in about 1 minute and it says edited by

I think I have OCD, the message annoys me

Hmm I don't think thats a good idea, it's quite helpful for moderators to see the edit history and changing the time would remove that.

Ah right okies. Not even by about 1 min?

Yeah, it can be quite annoying at times but as James has said, it's really quite essential for moderation purposes. If we need to quickly check the post history for that post, then clicking this link will take us straight to it. It's also quite useful, as it displays the time it was edited- that way you can tell if someone has added something to a post since the time it was created. A minute is already quite a long time for the edit mark to not appear, since a lot can be edited within this time. I don't see the benefits of making this higher, as it could make thing worse for moderation purposes.

I think extending the time any longer wouldn't make too much difference really, and that it's just a minor little addition to the post at the end of the day.

Sometimes you can beat the system if you are fast enough! Haha but what Jamesy/Martin has said pretty much answers it.
