It's still ultimately the responsibility of the user to have a valid response posted and edited before the deadline and this PT department seems to not want to take on the extra responsibility, which is perfectly valid. From what I've heard anecdotally, some of the offenders wouldn't have edited if they weren't allowed to, they were still operating under the assumption the PT team was taking responsibility for closing the post on time and they wouldn't have edited if they knew that changed.

I think my concern simply was, why do we have rules like the 15mins if all people need to do is to complain about them later so they'll get their TPE anyway? If you have rules then enforce them, not your problem as PT director if people can't read. But whatever...

Yeah I'm not saying the deadlines should be fluid, just that hotdog's policy was more "I'll close the thread at the deadline, submit if you can cause lag and stuff" and I think Slash (praise be unto him) is willing to allow one learning opportunity to adjust away from that. I doubt there will be further budging to complaints
