There have been instances of posts or chat comments being edited or deleted by admin. Also recently one of my for sale posts was also edited but as I don't know what was changed or why, then I cannot learn from that and avoid doing it again. I know at times it has been obvious - bird chat, comments that might raise controversy etc. Other times it isn't always so clear.
Would it be possible for Admin to notify a member when posts are edited, not with a view to entering into a debate about whether or not it should have, but merely to advise that it was done and why so we can learn from that.
Thanksl :)

The only editing we do in the classifieds area is usually to add the location to the subject line. Which is what I did to yours :shifty:
Also at times we have felt the need to remove contact details from posts for example a phone number.
Some of us have had posts disappear in the past couple of day's, BB has been doing some tidy up work.

To answer your question though, yes admin & mods can start putting reasons for any edits on the posts.
