i wouldn't say it's a security risk as it isn't really a vector for acquiring another user's personally identifiable information, but it isn't really the best thing. if we were a larger site i'd be more concerned about it but it's something i keep an eye out for.
that said even if mods were prevented from editing others' posts i can still edit the database so there still needs to be some trust when using a site like this. not that i'd ever want to do that unless something was broken from a technical standpoint ew. i'm not interested in being a bad person. it is important to think about when you use sites run by someone who isn't you though (read: corporations).

There should be a way to mark a post as being the cause of a ban without editing it.
I was thinking the use case would be like, if someone doxxed someone it could be scrubbed for example. But if it did get edited by a mod it should be marked as such. Iunno.

So, we have moderation logs, but AFAIK they don't mark edits. This is good for, say, scouring the site of spam links or porn posts or whatnot.
For the health of a larger site run by postmill, I'd say it's definitely bad. Forum mods should not be able to edit someones post. Admins would have the power but probably shouldn't.
Not to be a "muh freeze peach" chud, but I think it's plainly icky for mods and admins to edit posts, even in jest. The only exceptions I could see are syntactically-clear mod edits, a-la "USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST".

We value our traditions, don't erase our culture.

no longer allowed in later postmill versions, btw. imagine the advancements of society if this website ran a postmill version that wasn't from 2018

Yeah I sort of figured it had to do with sanitizing inputs not recognizing some emojis. Input sanitizers hate joy.

Well, you see, 🤗 is a joyful emoji, but Postmill is a miserable piece of software which sees no joy in this world.
