Is there a way to allow us to go back and edit our post? Sometimes it's for typos, updated dead link or photo, or to erase wrong information that we posted.

Hence the 2 hour editing window was introduced which I felt gave people enough time to spot any mistakes in their post and amend it. This is a global setting, I can't override it for any one user. Sorry!
