Default Re: New Board - Props and Slops

Regarding the editing issue, is there a possibility of allowing free editing and simply backing up previous posts to some moderator-accessible archive? This would allow people to report any abusive posts that come up so that the mods could review the previous edits of the post and take action if needed. It could also be used to restore content from any disgruntled users (with a bit more work from the moderators). Luckily, I believe that both of these scenarios have been rare enough that it doesn't make sense to impact the functionality of the entire forum to deal with a very few bad eggs, even though it would require more work of the moderators when stuff like that does come up. Software limitations may, of course, prevent this from being a workable solution, but I thought I could ask. =)
