    thats the annoying thing alright , I tried setting up a PSN user name thread ages ago, plan was to update the original post with the tags as the thread got added to. But on boards, after a while it doesnt let you edit your posts.

    So the only way is to wait for poor auld SDooM to edit it for yea.

    Eventually losing the ability to edit an older post is fail. Hence why our homepage is in a poost all of its own. Would have fired it in with my other links otherwise.

    Just send a bump to azza or sdoom and it'll be sorted, they're keeping the gamer tag one updated constantly so they obviously just missed this.


    Indeed its a pain in the hole, but its the way boards works as its a very large forum. Least we have mods involved enough in the community to do such a thing, other sections on here are not so lucky.

    Just to clarify:

    There's a reason for the non edit after a couple of days things, as some troll back in the day went back and made all kinds of crap for the place.

    If you want a post updated, just pm me with the changes. I'm willing to do it but don't just assume I will read your post. Help me help you! :)
