Hey @Kapmcrunk maybe you can clarify a few questions on post editing:
(1) I assume only the owner of a post (or admin) can edit a post?
(2) It doesn't appear, but correct me if I am wrong, that there is a time limit on editing?
(3) Is there a way to view old unedited posts?
I think (2) is problematic. I just went back to search on a particular post, from a particular vendor that I recalled. When I searched and read through the old posts I see that the post from 2014 was edited in the summer of 2017. If a post has stood for 3 years before needing to be edited it stands to reason that the poster is just trying to change history at this point (and not fixing a spelling issue or clarifying point) - and in some cases can make a thread not make as much sense.
