I usually don't edit posts from my members, but if I do it's to fix a typo because I want the page/post to rank for SEO purposes.

 

Have you edited any posts created by members on your forum?

I never edit other people's posts. If they double posted I would delete the extra post, since that happens at times. I feel when moderators and admins are purposely editing your posts it looks bad and I wouldn't want to be on a forum like that.

I edit posts only on two conditions, one, it has promotional link or suspicious link, and two the title has a typo. I do not edit the content. If the content is poorly written, too poor to be understood, I delete the post. Sometimes the post or the topic is good but it has a type on the title or it has a link that you do not approve, in situation like this I feel that editing post does not hurt the community, and is not even against freedom of speech

I'll edit a post if a portion of the post is breaking the rules or to add important information, particularly if it's the OP of a resource, documentation, or something along those lines.

Sometimes I'll edit simple mistakes or take out links on detailed posts meant for link ad posting.
