I can only edit my post 30 times
-
Can you guys please change this to 50? I am working on something that requires multiple edits wasn't expecting a threshold (even though i have a discourse site and should know such things).
Thanks,
@Frank

I'm not sure how I feel about this.
-
I want to get what @frank is getting. Give it to me also.
Thanks!
-
Well they picked 30...Which was probably arbitrary. 50 is ok (I just want to make sure late lurkers get a chance to submit something so i can add it to my running list of badges. See @nagesh agrees
This is one of the easier things they can change. Its a text field in the admin section. takes two seconds.
-
Its a site wide change. If they change it for me...It will change for you to.

takes two seconds.
This is famous phrase uttered by one project manager's wife when describing his style of +__________________+.

yes but in this case it does... :D

There should not be any limit in first place. I should be allowed to edit my post as many times as I like or want to. In true google wave fashion, I should be able to edit anybody's post if I want to.

You are a pioneer ! [spoiler]in making complaints![/spoiler]

Really? And they didn't change it? Odd... Well Nagesh bumped into this yesterday. I got hit today.
Well...Lets see what @PJH @codinghorror @sam come up with.
I was going to ask for 100 edits (but I thought that was being pushy).
-
To be fair, I was screwing around with trying to create forum attacks, so it's probably just as well to not lift that limit. You can still create new posts and edit those for a brief period of time.
-
Well you have a point on older forum sites you could have that main topic edit indefinitely. I see this on the bitcoin and litecoin forums (when someone comes in with a new coin and is aggregating and updating things to that main post).
-
Well in my case, I am just aggregating things in my main post. I'm not doing any exploiting stuff.
-
Can a poll also be a wiki? Because I think those are exempt from edit limits, right?
-
Wikis?
I'm not sure...I can check. hang on.
-
Well they picked 30.
It's the DC Default.

Oh? First time I've seen any complaints about the edit count limit.
I was going to ask for 100 edits (but I thought that was being pushy).
I didn't even realise there was a limit beyond the ninja and normal edit windows.
I've upped the limit.
-

Polls are subject to a 5 minute edit limit on the options - not sure about the rest of it, or what happens if it's also a wiki.
Lets find out...

Thank you sir..

Too subtle - I missed both :)
-
Lol...That is kind of obscure :P don't you think?
-
I wasn't calling for mod attention, just showing that I was noting it :P
-
Well you certainly did that. All you were missing was a call to action.
-
I didn't take any of my 'enhancers' that day.

My company knows if I haven't taken my 30 mg of Vyvanse and my 150 mg of bupropion, that not only am I to be avoided but also my coding goes all pear-shaped. I end up like the Carver in Silicon Valley.

I'm sure this post would be a lot funnier if I knew what those medications were.
-
One is for ADHD and the other for depression (and some other things as well IIRC, not a SSRI).
Filed under: hooray acronyms!
-
Correct: ADHD and depression/anxiety. I get terrible anxiety.
The second one is a dopamine uptake inhibitor and I explain to people that it makes me smile more and cuss less and help with my panic attacks.
-
Unfortunately, knowing what the meds do fails to increase the humor of the post.
-
Yeah, you shouldn't have asked...But!!! now you know...In case you ever have a panic attack or feel the thousand yard stare of an ADHD moment coming on when someone is talking to your face.
