I can't edit my posts, there's no edit button there.

I tried in IE, but it still wasn't there.

Err, why can I edit this post but not any other posts? Time limit?

In that case it should be removed.

There is a 30 minute time restriction in place. After 30 minutes from posting you will not be able to edit your post. This was put in place because of a couple previous events involving members editing all contributions to this forum before leaving, and also the recent spike in the number of members editing out notes put into their post by administrators and moderators.

This needs to stop, and for now we have had to resort to such action. If you require editing of a post after the time restriction runs out please contact a moderator to do it. Some groups are exempt from this restriction.

those people's work does not belong to you (admins/mods), and have the right to remove it before leaving.
people are put on the community blacklist for stealing work. by not giving people the option to edit their work out you are essentially doing the same. i think its sickening when people do not follow their own rules.
nor does a post belong to anyone else except its writer. if it is not written according to the rules, simply delete the post, and warn the user.

Stealing work is the absolute furthest thing from what we are doing by imposing this time restriction. If a member requests that they want a thread deleted, it is deleted without question. It is a totally different story when they give no prior warning and make every thread they've posted in a total mess with stupid little "..." messages. Those threads would be deleted anyways, but we would be required to find them first. This eliminates this bullshit step and allows us to run the forum more efficently and keep everything looking clean.

TiberiumWeb is a highly respected community and we would never ever resort to stealing the works of anybody, and I demand you never accuse us of it again.
