Is there a limit on how many times a post can be edited?

I’m trying to insert a picture in my post, and I’ve tried 3 times now.

When I was going to try another link, the option to edit my post was missing.

I believe there is a time limit.  If you attempt to edit a post multiple times within a short time (like 2 -3 times within a minute or so), it will think you are a Spammer and lock it out for a few hours.

As a WACA “Guest”, you cannot directly upload and post pictures.  You must load them on a photo hostinf website, and then post the URL to them here on the WACA forums.  We do this to prevent all of “Spam” posts that would inundate the WACA website if it was wide open to all of the nefarious entities looking to sell junk & porn.  If you sign up as a paid WACA member, you will have full access to post your pictures.

I am hoping that is the case.  The image hosting site that I had used for my 1892 Survey  information has dropped out of site and the images are gone.  There fore I am having to edit the Survey link here on WACA and just “hit the limit”  Hopefully I can complete the chore tomorrow.
