Sorry to ask, is there a function where a person can edit his own posts, cause I want to edit my GemCraft guide or posts with bad grammar, instead of posting new posts? if there is a function then well.. Im noob XD
I'm pretty noob. But yeah no editing posts, it's just the way the site was built, and adding in this feature at this point in the site would be hard, from what I understand. I am quite sure there was another reason but I can't remember.

people kept saying that people would say mean things, and then edit their posts. I think that's kind of a lame reason not to have it though.
Since I have little coding knowledge, my understanding is this:
At this point we like to promote accountability (and less work for the adminitration frankly!) To effectively deal with complaints we'd need to be able to view backlogged/archived posts as they were as we already receive complaints only to find the evidence has been hastily cleared up wherever possible.
Having said this, many other forums have an edit post function which seems to run without too much trouble (or so I guess). I can see several advantages to it (even for moderators) and a trust-based as opposed to suspicion-based system would be much more user-friendly...
Therefore the reason the site doesn't have an edit post function yet would presumably be because it's difficult to implement or Dan doesn't want one at this stage. What I do know is that with the new developers, site optimisation is/will be under way and after that is done, the administration may have more opportunity to implement actual changes.
Well thats quite sad, cause I want to edit my guide everytime I come up with a new tactic. Could you programme it in such a way that vulgarities are censored?
well what i noticed is this forum is almost useless cause people always talk about what they want for the site, but they always say they can't do that for some odd reason and some ideas are pretty good.
they should make it something like the about caome back any time and fix it, cause lets say you forgot something you would have to make a whole new.......... what ever they call these and some have way to many its hard to find the old ones.
