    I'm not that familiar with vbulletin. Is it possible for a user to edit their posts? There have been a few times where I realized that I shouldn't have posted something (affiliate links without disclaimers) that I wanted to go back and edit, but havent been able to find where to do so

    For 3 hours or so there's an edit button, see your own post above. After that, to avoid creating confusion within the discussion, the button is gone.

    We as mods can still do it for you but please, only when it's really necessary can you PM us. Think about these things before you post to safe all the trouble.

    You can edit them for a short period of time (6 hours I think but not sure) but after that they are uneditable. You should be able to see and edit button at the bottom right of the post if you are still in the editing grace period.

    Edit :) - T0PS beat me

    You see, he edited his :)

    Dunno how long the 'change your mind' period is actually. Might be in the FAQ.

    Look out for this one: [​IMG]
