Hey, I’m pretty sure that I cannot edit posts here anymore.

Quick example -

I made this boneheaded post about reducing the dilator set which is a terrible idea, and now I need to edit it because it’s really a very bad idea, so I want to change the title to say abandoned.

Since I am able to edit this post, I believe what’s going on here is that maybe there’s a setting somewhere in the depths of this forum, the changes how long a post is editable for, and I would recommend at least 2 weeks but maybe infinite.

Have changed to infinite - was 1 day for new users, I imagine to avoid the bait and switch getting around moderation. But doesn’t really work for our usecase of editing proposals.

Nice!

So this thread is solved? Maybe also add that in the title of the thread?  
Or can we assign categories? Solved / discussion / on chain / passed / rejected / etc?

There’s a tag system, but apart from at thread creation I can’t see it anywhere.
