The Edited Message

[damian]

Is it just me or does anyone else hate the message you get after you edit a post. It's just really big and ugly, takes up the entire post. Clutters is kinda.

 

Just look at it! There is no need for that entire bar for those few words.

It goes away when you donate.

I don't get what you mean?

The big white bar that says: "This post has been edited by ..."

[PruritusAni]

I thought that was optional, if you don't like it you can just not check the "show edited by" thing. Or do you want it to show as a way to timestamp edits, but would like it to be smaller?

 

EDIT: I just edited it and checked the box, to annoy you.

Staff members don't have that problem.

where is this check/uncheck thing you speak of?

It's a check box that says Show 'Edit by' line

I haven't got one, at least I can't find it, but I do remember it being there before the software update.

[PruritusAni]

Odd. Maybe regular members just don't get one of those boxes? I don't remember it being there before the update, but my memory is not reliable unless smells or numbers are involved. You both seem to be folding, maybe joining the Folding members group will give you access to the box? Not to mention you get a fancy DNA strand to go with it (You lose the stars though). Can anyone confirm my speculations?

[Crazy_Nate]

It's donated + staff (unless it's recently changed)

 

 

[PruritusAni]

But I am neither a donor nor staff, and yet I see that little thing ... weird.
