Aevann mentioned he'd put the edit logging feature to a site vote. Figure I'll get some truescore out of it since he's letting it sit for a bit
The Feature
As implemented right now, if you edit a comment or post more than three minutes after making it, the Edit tag turns into a hyperlink leading to the full text of every previous version of the comment. The Author of the comment, as well as Jannies, can click this and read all versions of your comment.
Why care?
This makes removing information from the website even more impossible, on top of a previous update that shortened the seven day grace period to edit a comment or post to THREE DAYS. Click here to find out the type of person you could be giving unretractable information to.
What's some use you guys have gotten out of the edit logging feature, lately? Have your feelings on it changed?
Aevann says the use case is for drafting effortposts and preventing time-wasting mistakes, but tbh I'm not convinced it's of much help when the text editor is naked and the preview feature doesn't really give you an idea of what your post will look like with half the features- better to work in notepad.
!effortposters this feature carries on in your name so definitely make your voices heard!
To the rest of us !dramatards and !poll_voters, edit logging affects everyone.

If nobody cares then let me get laughed out of the public eye for freaking out over nothing.
But so far it looks like a lotta users weren't even aware of the change, and the poll shows that time hasn't warmed people up to it.
