Editing and other options available on privileged posts

Posted under General

I've noticed on hidden (loli/shota) posts, that I'm still able to edit the content rating, parent post number, prev/next post numbers and source field. I'm also able to vote, flag for deletion, add notes, add to a pool, or add to favorites.

Shouldn't all these options be hidden from non-privileged users? Certainly leaving them exposed creates an invitation for abuse. The only potentially available option to non-prived users should be "Delete," if the user happens to be the creator of a particular post.

Let's assume the system prevented you from all these actions.
You can *still* upload a loli image and tag it however you wish.
So, as piespy said, it's no more problem than any other post, and trying to 'fix' this would create more problems.

The administrators are probably well aware of what privileged and non-privileged accounts are able to do at this point, so they probably will leave these options available until there is significant amount of abuse.
