[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 227601, member: 9240"] I mentioned this in one of my threads last night, but since I have heard nothing in response I thought I'd just air this out here. I appreciate what you moderators do, but when I come back to a post and see that a moderator has edited it, I would [B][I]really[/I][/B] appreciate it if they could leave a note stating why they felt the need to change my post. Something like... [I](Edited for format) (Edited to remove unauthorized copyrighted material) (Edited for the heck of it) [/I] To come back to a post that was carefully worded and constructed only to find that it was changed for some unknown reason 30 minutes later is beyond annoying. They're my words, my thoughts, my construction, and to change them without making it absolutely clear to the author, as well as to anyone who may be reading, as to what was edited, is at a minimum a disservice to all of us, and at most an abuse of power - though I'm not necessarily accusing anyone of that, at least not yet. I love this place, but I will make myself scarce if I can't trust that the things I post will remain mine. If something needs fixing, fix it, but let me know what was wrong so I don't do it again.
