While I did realize you could not delete your own threads, I did not realize you could not edit your own posts. I tried to edit a post I made a week or two ago because I said something incorrect in it, and to my dismay, I can't edit it...! This really suxs. While I can understand not allowing people to delete threads they've started because other people have written in it, I do not understand the disallowing of people editing their own posts beyond the 24 hour period.

This policy will probably cause me to substantially reduce the number of posts I make for fear of saying something wrong that I will be very embarrassed and regret saying for eternity. God knows I already regret stuff I've said online elsewhere that I don't want to make the mistake again.

I already am embarrassed partially by how I phrased my thoughts from that one post I wanted to edit. In fact, I actually tried to edit right after I posted it, and thought I did edit it. But now I see that it wasn't edited and remains the way I had phrased it originally.

This policy especially puzzles me concerning this is a personal growth oriented website where people reveal personal stuff that they may later realize was not wise at all.
