Shouldn't we be able to post and edit that same post within that same minute without having to wait 60 whole seconds?
I know its not a long time or anything, but it is when you literally have to count the seconds go by.

I try to pass the time by staring at your avatar.

While I realize and like the 1 minute delay between posts [it helps slow down spambots], I am wonering why a 1 minute delay for edits is needed. Often I would like to edit a post just to fix a typo or something, but I don't bother because the delay slows it down.

But, you just have to learn to live with it. FuseTalk is cheaper than PHPbb.

Besides, I thought PGC just used whatever was provided by the hosting company.

The reason we don't use phpbb is that our server uses Cold Fusion and not PHP. Rick told me recently that he would be uncomfortable installing both because they might conflict. FuseTalk has been our forum software for so long because it is Cold Fusion-based.
We are soon going to move to a non-Cold Fusion version of the site (based on CSS instead), so there may be an opportunity there to switch from CF to PHP which is also an opportunity to get new forum software. Please be patient as we don't want to move too quickly on sensitive technical issues. We are testing carefully as we go to make sure the switchover will go smoothly.
