Edit feature for message board?

Can we edit the messages? I am great at mistyping and a couple times the mistypes could change the meaning of the message.

(so far this message I have typed ties instead of times, and intead of at - I know, slow down and read what you write before you hit submit. I will try.)

You would probably have to recommend it to whoever is the head of forums to include editing in all forums. Buzz Out Loud is cool, but you have to be fair to the other forums too. In any case, I think it would be a great way to help people fix common errors taht occur all teh time. Happy

I posted this topic in the Forum feedback area. Thats really where this topic belongs. On the other hand, when you love Buzz Out Loud this much, you feel safe at home in the forum.
