Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

can we please please please have a post correction facility for 2016? :) I have to live with the constant irritation of clumsy fingers, especially on my new smart phone... pretty please?

Love you lots,

I agree with Han 😄 Sometimes autocorrect can be funny but mostly I am unintelligible 😞

decorum
Nooooo ... the inability to edit is one of the bestest things about this site and community. Knowing that you can't edit your posts means you think more about what you're going to say ~ I've seen editing on other forums lead to whole sentences/paragraphs being deleted and the context of replies being completely distorted :-(

Plus ... many of the slight spelling mistakes have become part of the wider forum use (*waves fish*) ~ to me it's part of the site's signature :-)

I agree with decorum, UNLESS the edit feature could be limited to say five minutes after the original post?

+1 to the current system. It encourages interest in proof reading before posting - for those who don't.

I really miss having an edit feature but think say a 3 or 5 minute time window would be a great idea nerd

I'm against. Like Ed Milliband's pledges, what you say should be set in stone

Humph! It is the auto correct that gets me every time! I type, I try and proof read in a tiny window, think it looks ok, hit enter and weird words have been posted... I hate technology, why can't I send you letters? ;) :p
