?I dont want them editing their own posts either.?? No editing of posts.? I mean, I want a button in the Owner settings to turn off or on, the members ability to do that.? If you read my original email, you will see that it relates to the influx of messages to those on direct mail, with having to re read the same message over and over to figure out what the person has edited.? If they want to make a change, they can just make a new post.?? Has nothing to do with closing threads, in fact, I dont want to close threads, my group has never needed to do so..... I certainly dont want them editing other posts either. ? I am also aware I can just delete the message, that is not the issue I am addressing here at all.?
