on my forum I give the members 15 minutes to delete the topic, and 30 to edit. I fugure that is sufficient enough. I have previously been members on forums long forgotten now, where they used to allow the users to do that and it certainly messed up the flow of things.

it sure does, i think that is also a good amount of time for them to fix their posts!

when i first opened up, I think i had triede this but i hadn't had an anti spam mod yet, so a spam user/bot or two got in, made a post and later edited a link, that lead to some quite objectionable material. I figure the 15/30 practice is sufficient. and if a member wants to still further edit it or have it removed, he/she can report it. or pm a mod or admin:)
