It's now setup where people need to request to be editors. This will cut down on spam and we need to work hard to not prevent legitimate submissions. It's setup on a user basis not per post meaning once you are an approved user, you can do whatever you want. We'll need to keep on these requests to get them approved quickly. A number of folks have requested to help admin and please ping me offline and we can start talking about what that would look like.
