Look for the [img]http://www.mohicanpress.com/messageboard/images/icon_edit_topic.gif[/img] icon. By default, the editing feature had no time limits. Because of one person's repeated abuse - changing content entirely so that replies no longer seemed relevant - I modified the code, some time ago, to enable me to put time limits on the function. Currently - and always subject to change, in one direction or the other - it is set at [b]48 hours[/b]. I figure that is a reasonable time for you to correct typos, broken links, misstatements, etc. Yes? Also, I shut off the script that adds the "Edited by ..." statement within edited posts. That should no longer occur. The editing feature is NOT there to change the [i]meaning[/i] of your message, however. If you say something you really don't mean ... delete your post [you can do that, you know!]. As long as there are no replies, you can delete any message you post ... subject to the time limits, of course!
