    I really don't like the idea of the Edit button disappearing after 8 hours, what will i do if i need to edit my post after that time? :eek:

    Now i can't edit this thread after 8 hours, isn't that awful?

    [Notice the BOLD, if its in BOLD then that must be my point]

    I need to edit one of my threads, what should i do? ( I cant report it as an abuse ) ..

    there's a reason why in reality, we have a saying called "watch your words, because you can't take it back". the same in forums (only you get to take it back for the next 8 hours...which is kinda long anyway).

    Really it's no problem

    The only time it would be useful is if you have a multiple page thread and the prices change, you could edit the original post and update them or advertise your special, rather doing it on page X where alot of people will miss it

    That is if the editing of the post is really important. You don't want to disturb busy Mods just to make minor edits, do you? :D
