Hermit, I think one of the biggest issues with fakku right now is that there is a misconception about the activeness of our moderators, I think if there were a more visual reminder as Das said such as "edited by so and so" we might be able to change that misconception. It might not matter but it leads to many users screaming about a lack of moderation which I don't believe is the same at this point in time.
And perhaps it will stay that way for a long time to come. As much as I can see your "visibility" point, the real question is, will (if ever the editing of one's post shall be implemented) it even be noticeable? How many users do you think will come to a random thread and read all of the previous posts dating back to the first, second, or third page before actually posting? How would even the user, who got his post edited, know that it happened? Are you saying that it's alright to add more work for the MODs who are clearly less than a decent in number?! Would they have to go out of their way just to edit a particular post, explain the reasons, and then PM the user involved only to inform him that a particular post of his got edited?
Too much work for the MODs if that's what you're suggesting they should do. They're not even active for the most part as you've mentioned. It'll be much easier still to just completely delete any unnecessary no-good post (IMO).
