    The date the campaign expires and the funding goal for the campaign should not be editable once the campaign has been published. Right now, a campaign creator can edit the campaign, including the date and the funding goal. This makes it easy for the campaign creator of a campaign that isn’t successful, to change either the date it ends (for eternity) or simply adjust the funding goal down before it expires so it can get whatever funds have been pledged thus far. This will certainly anger funders as well as give any crowdfunding sight a bad name…not to mention, the project is likely never to be produced since they more than likely don’t have the amount of funds they figured they would need…

    Easy solution is to allow editing, adding of rewards etc througoht the duration of the campaign, but the length of the campaign (date it will end) and the funding goal ($) cannot be altered by the project creator. However, the admin of the platform can still manually edit a campaign if contacted by the creator and there is a logical reason why such alterations are ok.
