    It depends how long ago you posted them, I think there's around a 5 day limit (plus or minus a couple of days).

    so you cannot do anything with them once tis time has passed??

    nope
    you could PM the mod of that forum and perhaps, if s/he has time, they might help you out.

    Though personally I'd only be likely to bother if there was a particularly good reason.

    otherwise you could spend half your day deleting posts...

    just think u should be able to delete or edit previous posts - why does the time limit come into effect?? how long do posts stay on the system??

    Posts stay forever. The reason behind the time limit is so say userx cant come along after starting many threads and posts over a period of time and then just say "Screw you" and delete the posts thus ruining alot of threads.
