Editing a post

Robert2 · 08-09-2008, 05:12 PM

I posted a thread and went back to it (I signed in) and tried to Edit it, but I could not find any place to "click" where I would be allowed to edit my post.
How do I edit a thread I posted?
Thank you.

Robert, regular members are only permitted to edit for a few minutes only after posting. If you have a special problem on one of them, then maybe someone can help you with that one.

if your post needs editing, either create a second one in the same thread clarifying the problem or pm a moderator and get them to edit the post for you.

The edit button on your post will be there for 30 minutes from the time of the original post, after that, you can't edit.

That rule applies to all the forums, (as far as i know) but strangely,

not here in comments and announcements.
