If Klaustrin's post has been retconned, shouldn't it be edited in some way to prevent confusion? The post says we're clear of the field, but the subsequent posts don't acknowledge it...

They probably aren't aware yet. I would tell Lek that "I don't think we're stuck anymore," if I wasn't in danger of being put in the airlock at this point.

Heads up-

A) We are not clear of the field.

B) Any retcons of posts that change their fundamental nature need to come through the command team first.

C) Look out you guys- you've managed to catch Dylan in a grumpy mood. That better not be a case of one-upmanship coming down... Tag.

We aren't clear? That's fine, but it means I have no idea what happens and we do need to work out a retcon for my post. The simplest solution was that we flat out say Lawrence was wrong and his plan didn't work.

Go for it. That's OK. Also, Dylan would probably quite like to know why he's getting a full-body massage from his ship without anyone telling him

As a matter of general principle major plot devices (Such as the ship being stuck) usually remain in place unless the CLO team removes the restrictions. That isn't to say you can't try and experiment, it's just that deciding the outcome of the experiment to change the plot device isn't generally gonna fly.
