Mandatory reason for editing is quite possibly the gayest thing ever. . . .

EUPHALO DOESNT REQUIRE A REASON LOLOLOL

5/27/2008 12:58:41 PM

i'd be fine if it just had a small "edited" note on the bottom of edited posts. there does need to be something that shows that a post was change, because the tubes are just too srs

5/27/2008 1:10:17 PM

the default reason should just be "because I fucked up on the first try"

with the option to manually change it if you edit for a different reason

^ lol

but i do agree

allow no-reason edits for 2-3 minutes after you post for typo fixing.

6/8/2008 11:00:21 AM

^agreed

i thought qntmfred was gonna actually get shit done

6/10/2008 9:03:28 PM

que?

i don't support this thread actually. i don't think there's anything wrong with it. sure it's not necessary, but if you don't want to leave a reason, leave it blank, easy enough

6/10/2008 11:54:44 PM

i was more talking about the other really simple stuff like the cancel on the insert image prompt still insert stuff, etc

6/11/2008 11:59:23 AM

i don't have write access to the file system otherwise i would

6/11/2008 3:28:24 PM

we're lazy, get rid of it. I don't want to have to click in the edit box and hit the spacebar when i edit.

6/11/2008 3:30:58 PM

i say keep the edit field

i win

you can't just leave it blank

[Edited on June 17, 2008 at 10:22 PM. Reason : see i tried. no dice]

6/17/2008 10:22:01 PM

^ Try the space bar.

6/18/2008 12:48:20 AM

AAAND THE EDIT MESSAGE IS BIGGER THAN THE POST ^^

can you at least make it smaller font?

Tab + space bar = .001 second keystroke.

6/18/2008 8:19:51 PM

Or, and imagine this - we could not force unnecessary "features" upon users, instead of complaining about their laziness. You know, like good UI design or something.

6/19/2008 1:06:25 AM

my issue with it is not that it takes time.......I can do a ghost edit in about .0002 seconds.

Its that it looks like shit when people have to do an edit. Also no one ever enters teh actual reason for the edit so its patently worhtless

6/19/2008 1:08:52 AM

^best argument so far

6/19/2008 10:51:02 PM

but in your heart it points out that you fucked up. i guess the question is, "Are you comfortable with your imperfections". rhetorical. but eh . . . Ice T told a 17 year old kid to eat a dick. what do I know? (hallucinating).

6/21/2008 4:45:15 PM

Can this be a poll on the front page?

6/22/2008 12:43:03 AM

i think that's a reasonable idea

6/22/2008 12:57:40 AM

1) It should automatically say "Edited by [username] at [time] on [date]" if no reason is entered.
2) It should say that in a smaller font size, say 8.

6/22/2008 2:31:50 AM

i like the idea of the auto no reason edit like ^ said

but really people, it takes milliseconds as it is to tab space (i do tab "." personally)

6/22/2008 3:59:35 AM

No way man. Sometimes I just edit posts to add my tag. "``"
So awesome.

7/14/2008 12:55:42 AM

I agree, I think this really has no purpose

7/15/2008 1:14:06 PM

eh...keep the edit but make it a smaller font if possible

7/15/2008 2:18:17 PM

i agree
