Carnuke,
There is no way to prevent users of the same level from editing each others posts. This is a serious problem. The kind of problem that could result in a libel suit against a Webmaster who couldn't even protect the integrity of his members actual words. Unfortunately, this problem has been and still is present in the original WordPress 1.5. Read
this post at the WordPress Web site.
It's just one of the many recent posts that deal with this problem. For most Web sites that have a relatively insulated membership, it might not be that bad. A Webmaster might be able to trust users not to meddle with other users' posts. But I'm trying to run a very public newspaper online. The Boston Public School System is one of my members. Can you just IMAGINE the mischief that could be caused by some little 'Net hoodlum editing the posts of the BPSS? Yikes!
No. I'm discontinuing use of WordPress immediately. If there is any way that I can help in the development of this module, I certainly will, because it's a VERY promising tool. And visually attractive, too. It would just be too reckless of me to run it though.
For now, I'm going to go with PopnupBLOG.
