This question of post deleting and editing is an important one.It is great to have the ability to delete a post made in anger and later regretted or one made when just beaten to the punch when posting news so avoiding BB clutter.Going through the message number sequence there are quite a few gaps.We all make posts which could be held against us at a later date but so what!! As an extreme example I had a big debate with someone on another BB and as it concluded he pretended to have a hissy fit and deleted all his posts made just earlier but they would all have been off the main page and forgotten the following day..I presume that it is possible to save posts in "My Library" in case they may be deleted later but that is an extreme position.Only did once on a really stupid post about ISIS.So if we do make posts that later turn out to conflict with our present position lets just move on and not destroy the continuity of the board. To err is human as is changing ones mind or forgetting what one said a week ago..
