Is this the first post on the new server? I doubt it, but who cares, we made it! Woo hoo! 🆒
And we can edit! Yay!

Alas, we lost our masterpieces. I suspect, \*\*Jerry \*\* archived them off to blackmail us with. 😉

Yes, the trouble with unsearchable OP’s for some users appears to be fixed.

We are on a new faster server after a week of open testing.
We currently have a 5-minute editing feature.
We currently have private messaging if you go into your options and turn it on. Something I forgot to do earlier.
I believe we have RSS feeds enabled. [http://208.100.26.199/sdmb/showthread.php?t=338854](http://208.100.26.199/sdmb/showthread.php?t=338854)
That is all I know of.

Why allow editing?
I mean, it could end up causing a lot of confusion with the “You said” and “no, I said this and only edited because I made a typo…” etc…

It is only for **5 minutes** , and only on a trial basis. If it causes grief, I am sure they will pull the plug. So let us hope that our fellow posters will not abuse this very nice feature that many of us have begged for.
