Edit Posts & PERMISSION CHANGES

Is something wrong with my PC, or did one of you Admins suddenly remove all ability of us lowly users to edit our posts?

I personally edit my posts quite frequently when I notice the myriad of typos, and gramatical errors in my original posts. So I'm not particularly thrilled about this change which will make many my posts look like they have been written by an incoherent, drooling baboon...


Edit: Changed Title of Thread - NT

I noticed the option is missing on my posts as well. This was one of my favorite features of this board. I have been requesting other boards to add the option to edit posts and one has it in the works. I hope it comes back.
 
Ok, another issue: Has everyone's mailbox been suddenly downsized too? Yesterday 200 messages were OK, but today its only 50. May I ask what's happening?
 
Due to the actions of an individual, and the attempts by another, changes in permissions levels were instituted, on 'zero notice', effective immediately. These changes were made to protect the AK database from having valuable information stripped out by someone, before they depart AK.

These changes, in their present form, are temporary. Work is underway to alter the current permissions structure. Please bear with us, while this work is completed. I apologize for the temporary inconvenience.

Details will follow, as soon as they are available.
 
I just did a "quick" reply to my own post, deleted the "quote" and labeled it "Edited"...hmm, now I'll see if I delete the first post...perhaps not.

Something similar happened to me when I attempted to edit one of my posts this afternoon. :sigh:
 
Hopefully they can get everything worked out and we can go back to normal.
The attachment limit is killing me as badly as the edit problem..lol
I like to accompany things with pics.
 
OK, no edit because of some hanky-panky, details coming at a more appropriate time. I'm cool with that.

Now, what's up with the mailboxes being cut by three-quarters?

Thanks in advance!

Really! I tried sending one this morning and couldn't because I had to delete half of the ones I had stored, then I couldn't send because the recipient's was full too!
 
cmon guys. The reason behind this phenomenon has already been explained. This is an annoyance to some, but as Ernie stated in his post "These changes, in their present form, are temporary"

At this point this thread is turning into nothing more than a whining and moaning session. Instead of complaints, we should accept what was done for the time being. After all, its not like AK is down because of what happened. Be glad you're all still here!
 
Oh please. :rolleyes:

All I did was ask as nicely as possible about the message storage limits. Earnies post was most helpful and seemed to address the Edit function, I was interested to know if the message quotas were related, and if they would be restored.

Don't kiss up and kick down.
