New Scratchers should be aloud to edit posts!

I'm not a new scratcher myself but If I was this would be very annoying. What if they make a spelling mistake, what if they want to edit what they said. What if they posted a link or an image wrong, what if they want to edit somthing on there main post like if a new member joins there collab. The different difficulties are endless, and I don't think that it's fair that they should have to put up with that. Tell me what you think!

But then they'd need another rank, so why not just wait until they're Scratchers.

If somone says that a new scratcher spams, and it don't look like it, than just check if they edited it.

When you post your reply, use the Preview button to see if your scratchblocks are working properly.

I forget to preveiw alot of the time, so it would be handy if they could just edit the post.

No, because someone could be really mean and just edit it out.

Or the opposite; they could make a nice post, then edit it to be rude or spam.
If you want your post edited, you can just report it, and we mods can do it without too much fuss.  smile

I do believe the proper term is allowed, not aloud. But thats beside the point.  I think it would be very helpful.

It will reduce spam, but there will be a lot of lying of sorts.

Re: New Scratchers should be aloud to edit posts!

Yes; in the example above, the post would be something like:

Support!
last editted by [name] at [time]

And the Scratcher would be a bit more trusted.

If it's really that big of a deal, ask a moderator, or delete your post and repost it.

New scratchers cannot delete posts.

Re: New Scratchers should be aloud to edit posts!

That takes a while, ex.
User1: Blah Blah Contest Blah Close when I feel like it.
U2: *Submits*
U3: *Submits*
User1 thinks thats enough
User1 reports to end submissions
U4: *Submits*
OP is changed
User1 starts voting thread with U2 and U3's projects
U4: Hey I had a submission before submissions ended *shows screenshots*

Then a moderator would have to come explain, and I don't even think the report will still exist.

What? I did not follow you on that one, and this isn't going to change.

I know it's annoying, but it never is going to change. People can do really bad things with it, and then can just edit it out. This suggestion is never going to happen. I don't know why a thing about NS permissions isn't in READ THIS BEFORE SUGGESTING ANYTHING. People can cyberbully another user and edit it out! The report button works just fine, and the mods usually respond really quickly to your reports.

@Above
When the people who complain about wanting to edit become scratchers, they will stop suggesting this.
