Why can I edit other group members' posts?

Members of my user's group discovered that we can edit each other's posts. That doesn't seem like a good thing!

    Hi @chriswalls1208. This is because all of the members of your group are "Group Leaders". Leaders are given limited moderation tools within their groups because they're expected to moderate their groups themselves. If everyone is a Leader, then everyone can do that.

    This isn't necesscarily problematic, but the only solution would be to remove the Group Leader rank for members you don't want to have that ability. You can do this via your group under Options » Manage members » Make Member.
