I see this term all the time, but based on context I'm not exactly sure what it means. Is a Ninja Edit when someone makes a post, and edits it while you are responding to it? Or after you've quoted it? What's the exact deal?

I always defined ninja edit as editing while someone is responding to the post, but I'm not sure if that's "official" or not.

Just refers to editing a post right when somebody's about to comment on it.

lol i thot a ninja edit was when someone posts something and it totally sucks or doesn't make sense and the poster wants to remove or alter his original post as to not make an ass out of himself but before he changes it the damage is already done.
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.
