...if certain members edit the same posting up to ten times - without changing anything but maybe a comma here and there - only to make their topic/their name appear on top of the list? Isn't this annoying for those who like to read new contributions in a forum? Your opinion, please.

No witchhunts please, not even of the Nazis.
I may have to edit that opinion before I post it or make serveral subsequent posts, thus using up more space ( which is being paid for).
Make your choice - please yourself and be reasonable, this is a democratic forum, a Bantaba, a meeting place, not a third more world war zone or debating forum, Bantaba for me means to keep good( even if not always agreeable/intelligent) company, to chill out, not to dance with spectres |

No limit? That would be an act of incomprehensible madness. Then even infinity wouldn't be able to touch her sky.... |

Ok, here are the possible answers 
I. I think it is unfair and not very productive...
a) ...because if I am interested in a topic and from the list expect a new contribution I feel annoyed to read the same old sermon again
b) ...because I regard it as a cheap trick to stay on top of the list
II. I don't care...
a) ...because anyway I always forget what I read, and don't notice if there are no changes or new contributions
b) ...because I never read or post anything in a forum
III. I like it because...
a) ...I love to see a posting as a process, even if sometimes there are creative idlings
b) ...I definitely love to see all these cute little commas changed!
You may decide about the time limit. |

Admittedly my questions are a little bit biased...
Sorry, it is hard to stay neutral if I get the impression that someone is playing tricks on me and others...
Oops, now I edit myself...
Let me change my proposals:
I. no changes
II. I don't care because if I see that nothing has changed I just go to another topic
III. I like it because I see a posting as a process, even if sometimes there are creative idlings |

just a question, perhaps it has been discussed before. Why do you post articles from Foroyaa Newspaper?
is there a link between the Bantaba and Foroyaa.

I find it annoying to think that there is a new posting and someone has just edited their own postings.
I never edit mine, but that is coz I dont know how to!!!
Seriously though I think reading through the postings should be a progression of some kind of thoughts. If everyone keeps redoing stuff it alters the flow.
Likewise I dont see the point of quoting great chunks of someone elses posting. We can all read it in its original place! I just refer to the name of the person I am commenting on. It keeps it much briefer.  |
