Thanks for that admin I guess I will have to be a lot more careful in the future, is this a functionality that you think will be available in the future or is it a limitation of the software

This is a feature that we have chosen not to activate at this time to help keep the site real and true to people's thoughts. We've also seen issues in the past where someone will change their post after it has been responded to, which has caused other poster's responses to be void.

Example:
Post One: I'm a drug addict and need help.

Post Two: For a drug addiction, I recommend you do this: Step One, Step Two, Step Three, etc.

Issue: Later on, Post One changes the word "drug" to "gambling", therefore all of Post Two and any others that have been driven off of Post One are now invalid and causes the forums to be inaccurate. I hope you now understand the reason we have not activated this feature.

I tried to post an article that I believed would be of use to the community. However it would preview perfect, when I posted it it was turnicated and the rest of the article dissapeared. I would like to post the article, but as of now I seem not to be able to. How should I proceed? Oh... please remove all the half posts. Thanks

Well I have problme due to this but after reading the answers from Moderator, I am happy. I think we should have an option to regarding to this because sometimes we make minor mistakes in posting.
