I would really appreciate it if you would not add your comment to my reply, making it look like I said that. I did not mean his dampener was defective, only that the zero might not line up exactly with TDC.

How is it possible for another poster to completely edit the original posters thread? Schurkey edited my post without my authority and made it a completely different answer. Why is this possible and can it be stopped?

 

I thought that was a quote and not a change to the original post. It is possible to put anything in a quote.

 

Yes it was a quote and quotes can be edited.

 

Fyi the FIFY acronym means fixed it for you. Frequently used to denote that an original quote has been editted. ( and often used when humor is injected)

i dont think shurkey meant any harm, and i do think most members would not take it to be your words that were posted just above.

 

FIFY!

 

Whatever it was perceived to be, I do not appreciate anyone making changes to my posts. As the song said "I have an eighth grade education and a good christian raisen" I'm 76 and don't need someone putting words that I didn't say.
Also this has nothing to do with site help.

 

This is Just for informarional purposes to show how quotes can be modified:


I’m used to seeing this as good natured banter on the other forums I subscribe to
