slightly off topic here but is there not the facility to edit/modify on of your own post now after, say, you've been away for some time. sure it was available before ???

It usually times out after a while in most forums.

The facility to edit posts is allowed for up to 60 minutes after posting, Baz.  If you want something changed after that, you'll need to ask an Admin or GM.  :)

The reason we had to place a time limit on the lengh of time allowed to edit posts was because we had a member who constantly edited his posts to make nonsense of the posts that followed.  We eventually had to prevent him from posting because he was causing too much animosity.   :cry:
