If you edit it after someone responds the counter at the bottom of your post keeps track of how many times you edited after someone responded.
If you edit before anyone responds the counter does not appear.
You could edit a zillion times within 45 minutes and if nobody responds during that window the counter will not reveal the extent of your heinous crime.
I know this because I probably edit more than anyone else here.
I believe you cannot delete your post if someone has responded to it.

People do that??? I only edit grammar and misspellings, but I usually miss a bunch!

So why, then, do you doubt yourself after you press that Crazy Blue Button and go back to edit your entire post, when you realize you said something incredibly rude? If you typed it the first time, then you MEANT IT. You only go back and edit a post that says something offensive when your guilt kicks in.
Have some cajones, and stand by your original opinion, I say.

Are you referring to editing for grammar/spelling mistakes or editing to change opinions? I have edited numerous times for the former but NEVER the latter. If I am typing with my baby in my lap or from my phone, I don't always notice mistakes until later--even with all the time in the world. I would like to think the majority of people who edit here do so for honest reasons.

To change opinions. I have a one year old, so I probably have a billion mistakes, and sometimes I do fix them! I hate when someone changes their entire post because they just realized they sound like an asshat.

Well...as far as I know, people only edit to make Dancing Fire look bad. At least that's the custom.
