How do you edit a message board post?
I've seen others do it and was curious.

Thanks,
Glenn

Hey Glenn, on the top of the post you'll see the date and then four icons. Click on the third one with the pencil and that will enable you to edit your post.

The most annoying thing is when people copy the whole post, and the one before that, and the one before that, etc...
It's very basic message board etiquette.
Everyone knows what you are talking about and it's a pain to have to scroll past the same conversation 100 times.
So when quoting, you want to delete (using your delete button)
as much of the previous stuff as you can.
