So when did the timeframe get changed to 24 hours? Ribbit   05-24-2009, 01:44 AM   #2 (permalink) ldhair Coin Collector     Join Date: Dec 2007 Posts: 1,385 Peter posted this about a month back. Quote: I did have to restrict editing posts to 24 hours due to a rash of vandalism recently. I do not like putting on such restrictions, even when just temporary, but from time to time CoinTalk has experienced vandalism and spamming which takes advantage of openings such as this and it is extremely difficult and time consuming to combat these types of things. __________________ Larry   05-24-2009, 10:38 AM   #3 (permalink) HandsomeToad Urinist     Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Arkansas Posts: 6,572 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by ldhair Peter posted this about a month back.
