re: LetsRun.com

Next can we get a feature that automatically converts all offensive words according to Stanford's "Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative?" I hate to offend people by using words and expressions such as (Trigger warning: I am about to use highly offensive words. Please stop reading if you are easily offended): blind study, paraplegic, walk-in, brave, chief, spirit animal, freshman, gentleman, he, she, mankind, abort, American, Hispanic, straight, user, submit, cakewalk, long time no see.

See attached for the full list of 162 words and phrases that need to be immediately abolished. Thanks in advance. Oh crap, I just realized "trigger warning" is offensive, too. I should have used "content note." Sorry if I offended anyone and gave them PTSD for using that horrible expression.

We asked what you all wanted on LetsRun.com in 2023 and one thing was the ability to edit posts.
That is now a feature.
If you are registered you can edit your post for 15 minutes after you post. You then have 15 minutes to make your edit.
This should help people who make typos, and simple mistakes.
****
Also behind the scenes we now have a new system for admins to attach messages to posts and threads. So for example, if a thread discusses suicide, we can quickly add mental health resources to a thread. This used to be a very cumbersome process.
Related to this, if a thread is getting out of hand or going really off topic, we can warn people that certain types of posts will result in removal and/or ban instead of removing the thread.
Thanks to Erik for prioritizing these things and for all of you for the suggestions (and being a part of our community.)

Oh,

We can edict?

I really like rojo's typos too. They make his comments so much more fun to read.

Who said Rojo's ever gonna edit his posts? Some of his typos were so ghastly and/or amusing to begin with, so I assume that he didn't even know they were boners. And still won't know when he posts boners.

Rojo has always had the ability to edit. It’s not that he doesn’t want to, it’s that he doesn’t even know anything’s wrong

edit - finally after 2 decades

Testing if quoting an edited post retains the edit!

Also if we can't edit everyone's posts, can the registered at least edit the unregistered? That's only fair.

This post was edited 1 minute after it was posted. Reason provided: result: reason comment not quoted! Unknown if actual edit retained. Also we really should be allowed to edit unregistered poster's posts, and make really long edit comments, which this is a test of.

re: unexpected

Just discovered this cool feature today while posting on another thread. So, are you sure it's 15 minutes? I'm sure I read '25 minutes' on that other post which made assume it was actually half an hour.

You have 15 minutes from the post to start editing, but you have 30 minutes from the post to save your changes.

re: erik

Hey, Erik. Have you considered making the edit reason a different colour or a radically different font so it doesn't get confused for the main post?

These days you wouldn't be seeing that much. Certainly wouldn't have seen this thread.

Disagree. I select running threads and in that area are threads on politics, Crosby crashing and all sort of crap. Have moderators move the threads or don't allow them to be posted there. Other sites do this quite easily.
