Author Topic: Forums: Where did the Edit button go? (Read 2260 times)

I'm sure that some of you have noticed this. For some reason whenever I want to go edit a topic I made, I can't because there isn't any edit button anymore! Does anyone know why?

(This is only for some sections of the forums.)

wtf I can't modify my post...
You cant edit on Help.

Why don't you pay attention to the topics you mentioned this in? Some subforums have post editing off. It's not a problem, nor a glitch or a broken setting. It's just how it is.

Nope. Well, i dont think so.

Anyway, ive heard you cant edit in Help/Gallery.

You CAN edit in gallery.

You CAN'T edit in Help/Drama.

tutorials don't belong in help anyway, as it isn't a topic where you're asking for help installing/running the game
and you can't edit in help because idiots clear the OP when the question is solved, so others can't use that information when they have the same problem, and in drama i think because of kalphiter, not sure, although it's because people would edit their comments

I want to rephrase this:

The Help forum is for asking help, not giving it unprovoked. Guides such as that go elsewhere.

The drama board didn't just appear. Necessity is the mother of invention. As with the other boards, it was known beforehand editing posts would cause problems in such a board.

I believe you could edit in Drama before.

I choose to believe otherwise for the sake of the OP. There might have been the ability, but that was corrected soon on... It'd really be a mistake to allow editing there, I don't want to imagine back when you could.
