    Edit/Re-editing own forum posts

    Hi,

    Is there anyway that I can go back and edit/re-edit my OWN posts to fix the bad spellings/grammar mistakes, incorrect terms/terminologies, or to clarify my questions/problem descriptions ... (I don't want to create new post by replying to the old one, just to modify the existing post so it'll be more clearer for the next person to view).

    Thanks a lot.

    If you are logged in and can see a pencil icon with "Edit Post" next to it at the bottom of the post, you are able to edit it. Past a certain amount of time the option goes away (standard in most forums to keep people from radically altering posts).

    If there is something sensitive (email address, password, etc) in an old post, you can ask a Moderator to go back and edit it. But for general editing, please don't ask.
    Nothing is always absolutely so.
