AffiliateSeeking will become famous soon enough
The tool does work. When making posts you should check for spelling before and after you post. You and anyone else can edit your posts up untill I think 12 hours after you had written each post.

We have set it so no one can edit any of their posts after 12 hours of the post being written. A few other forums also have this in place including that DP forums.

There are many reasons for having this in place. For example, some one could be selling something where they get alot of people interested, they could then change their first post after a few days so it looks as if they were selling something differently to what they first advertised.

As we have put this feature in place, this means they will not be able to edit their post after 12 hours of writing it. This means they would have to write another post below it instead, and the first post will still be there for proof that they were selling that product or offering that service for that price in the first place.

That is just one reasons for having it in place. We set it for 12 hours as we know that some people would want to edit a post and thought 12 hours would be long enough.
