We all know whats going on whether posts are edited or not.

You think this is easy, rizzo? Babysitting some of you guys (not intended at you personally)? I edit judiciously. You know, there are 6 of us who do this. As far as I know, all 6 of us have full time jobs. Sometimes a post does stay up far too long before it gets pulled. You know why that is? It's not because any of us are covering anyone's ass. It's because we're efiin' busy earning a living, and checking in when we have spare time.
It used to be, we hardly ever had to edit because most folks here behaved themselves. It used to be this board could run with just John, Saltheart and Slip having the keys. Now we have 6 moderators and even with the 3 extra sets of hands, things get out of hand. I particularly resent your saying we either don't edit or pull threads to cover someone's ass. We pull them because the pissing and flaming detracts from the quality of the site, makes it less newbie-friendly, and drives more old timers away than anything else.
If you're tired of the editing, and you know that others are, either accept it and get used to it, or lurk, or go elsewhere, or do whatever you like. Because it's going to continue until this site returns to being a place where guys feel comfortable asking a question without having to worry about some wise-ass torching them, or where guys who don't like each other in real life trade cyberjabs.
