Re: Edit History and Revert to Previous Version of a Post
Perhaps an option for a future perk, might be to allow a pseudo undo for a particular person... the option would take the original contents of any post that they Edit, and place the original in an Undo clipboard. It would presumably only hold the most recent edit. But if someone realized after making an edit, that they selected more of the text than they though and wiped out too much of a post in their edit, they could go back and copy things out of the undo buffer and put it back into the post. [of course being another edit, the old edited post would replace the undo buffer, once they repair it.]
I agree that keeping a history of each post would probably require a significant reconfiguration of the database setup. It might be useful to stop a angry player from 'vandalizing' or 'sterilizing' their prior presence, but even that unless you keep quite a few copies of revisions, it likely becomes very difficult to truly prevent it.
