Uh, I was promised I would have 3 minutes to rebut myself.: It appears that perhaps the 3-minute clock on making changes to posts starts on "Preview" rather than "Post." Has this always been the case? I've noticed on occasion that when I hit "Post" I get no opportunity to edit afterwards. (As a side note, I am hitting "Preview" earlier than I used to because I'm still having that problem where the box goes all the way off to the right side of the screen until I hit "Preview," and then it repairs itself.)

Question: when you post a FPP, is there an implied responsibility to moderate the thread?: This is in no way a pointed question, just a curiosity. It isn't implicitly stated anywhere that I recall, and I don't see that duty taken on all that often, but I've seen nods to the individual who posted and some comments that may or may not have implied a greater responsibility on the part of the poster. And I was just wondering.

Everyone hates me because I Mac...: Comment, then a question. As a Mac-user, I have found a strange issue with Spo-Fi when I use Safari -- the Bold/Italic/Link buttons just never appear when I am posting. The work-around has been to use Firefox instead -- they do appear there -- but I much prefer Safari overall as a browser, so if there's anything that can be done, that would be super. (This issue has existed since I joined in December, so it is not related to any recent Spo-Fi changes.) Second, I don't seem to be able to post pics/tables/etc. like other fancy posters -- is this a Mac thing, an "I don't know HTML" thing, a "You must be liked this much for special features" thing, or what? Hey, also, on review, I can't bold or link or anything in the Locker Room... even with Firefox.
