    Hi,

    Just wondering if it'd be possible to implement edits for votes on polls. It's happened to me a couple of times that I've accidentally clicked the wrong option on a poll and immediately wanted to change it. We can edit posts we've made for a week after we make them, so why not poll votes?

    Just to correct you there, I believe we can only edit posts for up to 48 hours after they've been posted.

    Just PM the mod of the forum and ask them to change your vote.

    Just to further clarify: If you're a forum moderator (or worse, one of those Category Moderators) then you can edit posts in the forum(s) that you moderate any time. The 48 hour window only applies if you've posted on a forum outside your moderating power.
