Hi, wanted to go back and add to some of my posts and the edit button is no longer there? I just posted again, and that one shows me an edit button....does the option to edit go away over time or something? Thanks.

You can edit your posts for 24 hours. After that you can ask me or any of our Moderators to edit for you.
Kurt, I will add that a time limit for editing is pretty normal for many, forums...not one that I participate in or moderate (about a half dozen total) permit editing beyond 24 hours or so. There are multiple reasons for that. In some cases, it's to insure the integrity of content long term. A the other end of the spectrum, it helps insures that "patient" scammers and spammers cannot post something that seems useful and then circle back days, weeks, months later to, um...add undesirable content. It's a good policy overall, IMHO, and as Keith noted, something that truly needs to be edited can be handled with the help of forum moderators.
