You can only edit the last post by you in a topic. What if you want to edit an earlier post? I suggest allowing us to edit any post made by ourselves, not just the last thing we posted.

    Why would you ever want to edit an earlier post?

    I've found several occasions in the marketplace when it would be handy, i.e. updating the original post with updated prices and a new video etc.

    Perfect example. In my topic about my game AntiMal coming out soon I want to add in screenshots to the first post. Because I can't change it anymore, I had to make a new post in the topic. I really want to edit the first post.

    IK, its a pain. I would really like GS to fix their website! There are lots of things that need fixing. Especially the subscribe to topic via email. That would be very helpful!

    So you would rater update your original post with a new price instead of adding to the thread so it come's back to the top?

    The point of editing is to fix a mistake in your post. you have I believe about 1 hour to do so. if you don't find the mistake before that time is up then its really on you. just make a new post noting the correction.

    Well GS has said many times they are hiring. they actually need to employ people to fix these things, so maybe you should put in a resume and offer your services.

    Same for me. I have a video now so want to put it at the top of the post. Would rather not make a new thread.
