Like many of you, I post from my phone

It's 2022, and my phone is my primary way of viewing the internet

With that said... my phone causes me to make more typos. Lots of autocorrect debacles and fat fingering. Sure I could preview every post before I send it off, but I'm far more of a "shoot from the hip" sort of guy

Why is it that I can't get like 60 seconds to edit my posts before that little post editing citation appears below? Some sites even give like 5 minutes

This would overly improve my forum experience. Few things stifle a well made post like seeing that little "last edited" message below it. Takes out all the punch. Weakens points. Ruins jokes

Please help, EviLore

Thank you kindly

Oh God I made a typo in my thread title

 

[Pagusas]

why does the post edited citation bother you?

 

[Pegasus Actual]

Ahh, I kinda feel ya. But it's fine. Ya edited the post. People probably don't care as much as you think they do.

And what's this GAF on the phone bullshit. Message boards are for computers, you want to be phone guy go ahead and post on the Facebooks or whatever the hell those people do! Don't have a foot in two different worlds.

FTP

 

[Kilau]

There used to be a grace period. I assume after one of the site updates in the last 6 years it went away.

FTP

I do not know that abbreviation in a way that fits the context of this conversation 0_o

 

[MrFunSocks]

What’s wrong with it saying you edited the post when you….did…..edit the post?

Peak autism.

 

[Squarehard]

So we can mock you when you make a typo.

Yeah I recall this as well

Most forums seem to. Even bluray.com

Just an interesting quirk with this site I never understood entirely

OP is a confirmed twink.

[Rentahamster]

Given the nature of the OP, I applaud your use of visual aids in the title.

 

[Star-Lord]

First world problems are a thing.

 

[teezzy]

You're all brainwashed

 

[Punished Miku]

I thought you guys were putting typos in the title on purpose at this point.

 

[AlteredForms]

I’m in the same boat. That edited post notification makes me feel like an illiterate peasant. Not a pleasant feeling.

[bronk]

Damn near every post I make on forums or discord says edited. I know everyone sees "edited" and knows I'm a doofus. I understand the feeling. Phone gang

I wish they never melted down over dear leader losing. But, that's life.

 

[Trogdor1123]

This is one of the most bonkers things I have ever heard someone complain about…

No way! Go get your own mad weirdo!
Richard Packer stays with us.
By the way, do you have Tess?

 

[12Goblins]

couldn't agree more

editing a post is pretty much letting everyone know that not only are you incompetent, but that you are a try hard bitch. it weighs heavy on me every time...

Jarebear left because of this feature

FUCK

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

It's worse when a forum shows all your edits...5, 10, 15 edits history here we come.

They/them

I have info on his whereabouts. You have to be comfortable using the dark web though.

I'm not talking about D Pad. Just my little ten person Xbox discord server. We mostly use it to hop into voice chat and play GamePass games together. You really aren't xaero after all. Thought he was pulling my leg this whole time.

My apologies, Mr Packer

....

Peggies Tess left both sites. I forgot why at this point.

 

[GeekyDad]

Thread was fun while we were degrading the TC over something ridiculously silly, but now it's starting to get a sweaty ball, locker room vibe...

I'm fout...

Then don't be an illiterate peasant, peasant!

 

[jufonuk]

not sure where to put this question. so putting it here: I ignored some threads then unignored them but I can't see them on my laptop or phone what am I doing wrong?

I remember him saying he wanted to focus on RL or something.

I remember him saying he wanted to return a video. In retrospect I think that was a lie.

It was definitely a lie. Blockbuster hasn't been around for ages.

 

[haxan7]

It was definitely a lie. Blockbuster hasn't been around for ages.

maybe it was a dirty porn shop in a back alley
