Unless I'm mistaken, when LS or Mark edit a post, it includes a note that it was edited by them.

Nope. Didn't happen with my post.

I think there is a feature that emails the post creator when a post is edited. I'm not sure, I'll have to check. I know it will email if it's deleted.

Nope. No email. It might possibly be that those that are moderators get the emails you've mentioned or that edited notations are visible to only other moderators. But to a lowly member such as myself, there was no indication that anyone had edited the post, as is the case when I've edited other posts I've made.
My comment was made under (since deleted by lordsmurf):

My first sentence was left alone [u]without</u> the gist of my comment, completely changing the tone of my post. To someone reading my then [u]partial</u> post that was left alone, they would have seen only one sentence which [u]appeared</u> to have [u]never</u> been edited by either me or anyone else. The sentence was plain, with no notation of having been edited.
This makes me very nervous because now I'm wondering how many other posts have been edited without my knowledge. Unless I keep records for all of my posts, I would probably not even notice this had been happening.
I can understand that the moderators have the liberty to edit (for whatever reason), but editing without informing me by way of an email or actual notation under my post of the changes is not kosher. As I told lordsmurf, if my post needs editing, I would prefer it to be deleted altogether so that my comments aren't taken out of context, which is the reason for this complaint.
