I can't seem to edit my old posts anymore. Is there a reason for this? Can you only edit so many post a month or something? Or is it just a glitch?

once you replied to your original post you cant edit after, so if you were to reply in here now after me, you will not be able to edit the initial post.

That's correct. What do you think this should be changed to?

Oh, Alright. Thanks for the reply.

I don't think there should be a limit. Does it take to much space for every post to be edit-able? If that's the case than i have no disagreements. :]

I think it will be a good idea to increase the editable time to a week or so....maybe longer!

I've never had a problem with the current limit - if you've not needed to change it within a day then your not likely to do so later.

I do think it should be more obvoius when a post has been edited - if you don't fill in the box then people might think it's the original text.
