I would like to suggest that when a mod finds it appropriate to edit or delete a post, that it shows up in our "Alert" stream.
For example, in post I got edited. I am not disagreeing with the edit at all, it was an innocent mistake on my part, and I think the mod realized it by the way they politely did the edit. However, I would never had known it if I hadnt have scrolled back into the history of the thread and saw it.
I cant help but wonder if I have other historical posts that got edited that I dont even realize, and therefor dont make the effort to correct/prevent future occurrences.
Sure would hate to make the mistake multiple times and have the mods think I am disregarding their corrective attempts.
Sometimes we know when we are pushing the limits, and yeah, we expect the frying pan then. Sometimes it is quite unintentional and easy avoided once pointed out (like via Alert stream).
