"Edit times" of our posts in forums
Is there any particular reason why some forums have the "edit times" indicated after editing a post only a few minutes, others longer and even others not at all? Thank you in advance.

Yes, where it shows what time a post was edited. I have edited several of my posts because they don't make sense and/or I didn't say what I wanted to say in them.
I have yet to see a post edited by someone other than the author of that particular post.

Hello Marshall. Sorry for bringing this issue up.
I was just wondering why there were different time limits and not time limits on certain forums.
It isn't that it is actually bothering me, but seeing that I edited my post twice so many hours after my initial post may be looked upon different among different members.
There is reason to edit out posts, I have an idea why it indicates what time and how many times we edited a post, but specific reasoning and why some forums don't have the same criteria as others, I would think would be an obvious question.
Questions arise and answers are given or aren't known.
Thank you very much.

Marshall, I don't remember off hand which forums specifically do and do not indicate the time a post is edited. I would have to test each forum to see what the differences actually are; that is I would have to say type "test" in each forum, edit each tested post (adding characters) after so many minutes pass, and then see which forums indicate that I edited the post I made.
It will be hard to know how many minutes after a post it shows which time a post has been edited. I do know that after at least one response is added to a thread, the post you edit will always have the time your post has been edited.
If we actually do try this test... then we [you] should obviously delete all the tested posts.
I totally understand if you aren't willing to have me or you don't want to try this yourself. I observed this feature and thought I would assist you with these suggestions. I greatly appreciate it.
