I run a tiny website and I've always allowed an unlimited timeframe for editing or deleting posts. I haven't had any problems in relation to this. I can see where it could be a problem with a larger site, but I think people should always have the option at any point in time of retracting or rethinking what they've written.

I've personally wished I hadn't been quite so open on the addiction forum at OBT, as I wrote about some issues that didn't need to be common knowledge in my workplace and I used the same screen name there as I am known by in my email addy. It could have caused me great distress professionally had the wrong person read what I wrote!

Hindsight is 20/20, so they say...

Thanks,
