If you rearrange the letters in the name ANDERTON, and take some away, and add some, and rearrange them again, you get LIZARDS.

OPEN YOUR EYES, SHEEPLE.

I've seen his videos.

David Bowie isn't dead, etc. etc., it's all there to see, look at the evidence..

Baa

I don't need it but if it helps someone else that's cool I believe...
Speaking of software.....Wish they could(well would, I know they can) fix my user profile-always offline  :-) 
 

Sometimes I don't see my miss steaks until the next day or two.
 
What a MoRon.

One option to reduce need for after-the-fact edits:

1. Type intended message into new document in your word processor with spell and grammar check enabled.
2. Make any corrections; pause to look at the content one more time
3. THEN copy and paste into the forum submit box, preview, and submit.

Actually followed my own advice in this case, and found I had mistyped one of my hyphens as an equal sign, so I corrected that before posting. (On the other hand, the Quick Reply box thinks "mistyped" is not spelled right while Word does not detect that as an error).
 
Using a word processor is slightly slower than just using the forum Quick Reply box, but sometimes an extra pause to think twice about the content can be even more valuable than the spell checking. As an aside, I do like Craig's suggestion about how to make corrections with red font and leaving previous mistake visible. That is a best practice we all could do well to follow.
 
Edited to add: After posting, I finally noticed the date stamps on most of the posts in this thread. Looks like the topic of editing for mistakes had been diverted to address off-topic postings by someone. I was misled because a single recent additional post  brought this to the top of the list. Apologies for contributing to reactivation of a thread that maybe should have been allowed to fade into obscurity.

 
As Karyn has pointed out the issue is the forum clock and nothing else.  It was 14 minutes fast last time I noticed, so the grace period has already expired before you post.  My curiosity would like to know how it is possible that we have the only digital clock on the planet that can't keep time.  I almost always edit my posts and appreciate the grace period.  I can re-read a post several times before posting and still notice an error or two the minute it appears in the thread.
 
[yup, found a typo, and the clock is still 14 minutes fast]
 

Fair Is Fair
Well, it is funny how Anderton commented on this thread, saying what he did, especially considering the fact that he has the ability to bypass the edit stamp, didn't tell you all that did he? I have witnessed it myself several times, the latest today in the Tips and Tricks thread. But I know my posts will be deleted before everyone can see them, can't have the truth can we? but there you go, that act in itself speaks volumes.

You'll note that I have quoted your post in its entirety so I can delete your posts after banning yet another alt, while not giving you the opportunity to act like some martyr who was censored. People will be able to enjoy your sillines as long as this forum exists. I followed the same procedure regarding your frivolous post in the Friday's Tip of the Week thread.
 
For the record, I've explained why you are wrong in my response in the Tips thread. I invite anyone who ascribes even the slightest bit of credibility to your post to follow that link. However for the amusement of any other forumites who are curious about the tweak that got you so upset:
 
[original] The threads about LANDR have put the concept of mastering under the microscope, but have also
revealed extreme levels of ignorance among some forumites
[edited]  The threads about LANDR have put the concept of mastering under the microscope, but have also revealed occasional extreme levels of ignorance among some forumites
 
Yes, I added the word "occasional" to clarify that examples of extreme levels of ignorance are not necessarily commonplace. I try to be precise with my language. It's amazing that anyone would have a problem with that.
 
[Edit]: I forgot to add that if I said something incorrect and edit it, I usually add [Edit] and change the font color of the correction to red. What's even weirder about the "Fair if Fair" comment is that I supported Steve's position. 
 

Thanks for making the only correct decision, Craig. I got a little grumpy with that character 
All the best.

Spelling and punctuation are important!  It's just not recognized by a lot of musicians since we spend most of our times with dots and lines.  I'm dyslexic so I am particularly crazy about it.  My first lover was extremely dyslexic, he couldn't even read street signs.  All my cousins are dyslexic.  You men who have the capacity should be happier about it all and hone your skills.  If you're not moving forward...you're going backwards. :D:D

it is probably one of many virtual machines that is configured incorrectly.

A Cake employee can reset it, but it only takes about a two weeks before its far enough out of sync to kill the edit grace period again.

The mystery is then - why haven't they set up Network Time Protocol, NTP, on this server?
