So, I just realized I can click "edit post" on your posts.

If I were to add or change something, would it actually save it? Do we have the ability to edit each others posts?

I'm only asking because I'm hoping you know before I actually try it LOL

EDIT: See what happens!

Yeah I think you can edit people’s posts but it doesn’t happen anonymously. It will say “Edited by soandso”

Lol!

The ability to edit your Post has always been around - even back in the original Help days.
Also, we have the ability to close our Posts BUT unlike the old days of Help, it takes a Moderator to re-open it. (Bummer).

Anybody who has been part of Help for at least 3 months can edit posts. This is usually most helpful for cleaning up spelling/grammar in order to help others understand what's being said.

All edits are public, so everybody can see who changed what, which helps slow down more of the trolling edits for the most part. Also, users who abuse this power can have it revoked. (Hasn't been necessary so far, luckily. 😊)

I think that the ability to edit someone else's post is downright stupid. And is the equivalent of a ticking time bomb; it WILL be abused eventually. I can think of a number of ways to do so that wouldn't be detected unless a mod is alerted to each edit and chooses to investigate.
