Look, don't freak out about editing posts. We do it for 1 of two reasons.
1. For laughs. We're here to have fun and it's not like we can silently edit posts (anymore). Sometimes editing a post gives joke potential.
2. There's something in the post that shouldn't be there.
In tonight's case it was explained, and in my experience if we are editing for REAL reasons (not for laffos) we explain why. I mean, why wouldn't we? We obviously don't want the poster to do it again, so it is in our interest to explain.
If you want to know you can ask. You can ask publicly. I don't care.
The vast majority of edits are in camp 1.
In terms of general moderation just follow the rule: don't be a jerk. Do that and you wont have any problems. We're pretty lax, but being a jerk makes it less fun for everyone so we don't want that. Jerks lead to other jerks. And that sucks.
