    I didn't realize this until a couple of weeks ago but vBulletin actually has an "edit history" feature and I just enabled it.

    Posts are now able to be edited indefinitely but each edit will add an history if you do it past the 5 minute limit for "edited by" to show up.

    Mods/admins/self will be able to click the "edited by name" (which is now a link, for edits made after this point in time) and see all previous versions. Self being the user. You can't see other people's edit histories but you can see your own.

    Now everybody's happy!

    Edit: BTW, here is the URL syntax.

    http://www.pokemontopaz.net/forums/p...ory.php?p=3845

    Anyone not mod/admin/self will get error but just wanted to show you guys. You can get the number for p=xxx by seeing the url on "#x" post on the upper right of posts. Such as this one, which is http://www.pokemontopaz.net/forums/s...ll=1#post18579

    So that'd be posthistory.php?p=18579 - Just throwing this bit of technical stuff out there for anyone who wants to know.

    I just tested it for additions, and deletions. Works both ways.
