Allow users to edit threads after creating them

[That Guy T]

I'm sure there is a reason why this currently can't be done but it seems like it could be a great feature to add.

For instance, I'm making a my journey thread and I just went to go update it and realized I can't.

Now users will have to scroll through a bunch of comments to see where I'm at in the journey.

Maybe even limit this to JR VIP

What does everyone think?

You can for about the first 15 minutes.

Example:

Off the top of my head, we don't allow it beyond that for multiple reasons:

1. We don't want sellers editing their marketplace threads and changing details after the review.
2. Some users in the past removed their own content during a tantrum, and then asked us to restore it.
3. We want to prevent users from changing their content entirely (e.g., to make it look like other users are liking something offensive).

Essentially, self-moderation is not something many are capable of.
