Oh stop the pretending Antony. We're not stupid enough to believe that you're not taking every opportunity to drag me and others through through the mud by bringing up the past.

You started it all over again in this thread with your post of 17 Oct, 2005 8:24 pm. Everything was going along just fine with posts and replies dedicated to Katrina and the effects it had on New Orleans, etc. and a mild discussion on investments and such, no big deal and was rather enjoyable until you decided to drag up the past again and ruin everthing once again.

Please stop calling me "Your Dear Friend" Antony. "Friends" don't act like you do.

Thanks for killing the Katrina thread with your nonsense and paranoid drivel.

And I noticed that you have removed the EDIT capability once again in this thread. Why? I already know the answer but you may wish to enlighten the rest of your users.

Be careful when you reply, Antony, The FBI may be watching.

Ha!
I simply posted about what I felt, and I guess I'd better repeat it again, since you failed to read it.
After being the recipient of merciless attacks, I cannot in good conscience, am afraid to mention that ill feelings toward some individuals, our good friend Mr Jay Garcia included.

I also said the following and you, Mr Jay Garcia , failed to read it, as usual.

I just wonder, no "insinuations" intended.

You always make a noise on this, don't you?
SillyDog701 does not conceal evidences, unlike some tech support site, posted something horrible, later covered it up by deleting it or even blamed Google.

PLEASE, both of you! Let's not start this again! If you really must argue like this, either do it in private, or if you really must, do it in a more appropriate thread! A thread about a disaster is no place to argue about word censoring, stealing users, edit buttons or concealing evidences!

Okay,
I thought it would be nice to answer our good friend, Mr Jay Garcia

You're right of course. So if I leave, Antony will have no reason to drag up the old issues on a continuing basis even when I post good informative, first-hand comments and such.

BTW: I had a very long-winded reply all ready to post but since I can't edit or delete my own posts, I decided not to enter it. Users on the UFAQ can edit and/or delete their own posts, there are no exceptions. We don't hold them accountable for accidental typos and such. Users can delete their own accounts as well, can't do that here that I am aware of. It's like being in jail with Antony holding the only key. Lord help you if you make a mistake, you can't correct it.

Thank you for your concern, my dear friend, Mr Garcia.

SillyDog701's users are clearly aware that editing was allowed, but not after days, unlike some other forums' entire thread would gone missing with the soul intention of "concealing evidences" or based on someone's mood.

When made a typo or mistake, everybody knows he/she can simply post a follow up to correct the error. There's nothing to be ashame about doing so. No one in SillyDog701 has been questioned for accidental typos and such, as you'd wish. Such things only occurr in narrowed minded places.

Still working on how to use SillyDog701 venue to propagandise SillyDog701 users believe that it was all my fault (which was NOT the case), Mr Garcia?

Oh c'mon Antony, tell the truth for once. I just posted a reply at 9:37 (?) THIS morning and can't EDIT it, not that I need to but it says at the bottom of the page "CANNOT edit posts" and "CANNOT delete posts". So what's the deal, Antony? A few minutes isn't DAYS !!! The ability to EDIT and DELETE was there earlier in this thread. Now it's gone now that we're "discussing" the old issue, that's it isn't it?

Having to make a second post to correct the first one is absurd, nonsense and takes up space. How can a user "conceal" evidence by having the ability to EDIT and/or DELETE their own post??? If you make a post with a mistake and edit it or delete it, what's the problem? It's not posted, simple as that? What you're doing can be called "reverse censoring", you post it, too bad, you can't take it back.

If, for instance, I post something in haste because I'm mad about something and then I calm down and think better of it and want to remove it, I can't do THAT after a few minutes? If you never see the post to begin with then how is that a problem? Paranoid is my guess. You're supposed to be an "Admin", not a "dictator".

I think the FBI and maybe the CIA is on the way .... I have "connections" you know.

I never said "delete" was allowed, if I said so, it was my mistake.

Since early days of this Message Centre, the allowed edit time has been 11 hours and 41 minutes, usually.

Ha! This just reminds me of the secnews. Someone was able to use my deleted messages to accuse me, more than once.

You're supposed to be an "Admin", not a "dictator".

Same apply to you in some other venues, my dear friend, Mr Jay Garcia.

Thank you for reminding.

The ability to EDIT and DELETE

Oops, didn't mean to say DELETE, but since I can't EDIT the post, I have to correct it with this second post.

Oh baloney, Antony, I just made a reply at: 19 Oct, 2005 10:28 am and I can't edit it. The ability was there earlier in the thread yesterday and before but not now. Maybe 11 SECONDS but surely not 11 HOURS.

EDIT:

Hmmm, just posted THIS and some magic occured, now:

"You can edit your posts in this forum" .. Interesting, isn't it?

And not only that, I can EDIT a post from: 17 Oct, 2005 5:43 pm .. A LOT longer than 11 HOURS. Kewl, huh?

Yes, I miss the DELETE and the EDIT buttons also.
I make errors and for some reason or other, sometimes I see something I have written when posted, even tho' I did check and didn't see in Preview.

Why did you have it for 701 minutes Antony and then remove it? I know what you explained, but if you leave it for 701 minutes your explanation doesn't apply. After that time, I wouldn't remove anything, as well as most people that visit Sillydog701 for info.

The Admin and Moderators are the only ones that probably would know how to remove them later.

If it was said in the heat of the moment, sometimes I just save in drafts, but give us back the Edit anyway and the delete also in 701 mins.
Sometimes after I have written a reply, someone else has explained whatever, and my question will make no sense.

OK, now I'm curious. Since EDIT is back now, you can post said long-winded reply, right?
