How to edit posts in the forum after a while
Published on 21 December 2012 - 18:24:47

Hi friends!

Shining Aquas had found a way of editing old posts in an absolutely brilliant (and non-intuitive) way. I'm copy-pasting his technique in the main forum so that everyone can see it.

First of all, all of this clearly works only on your own posts

1) Find the post you want to edit.  Right click on the "Quote" icon and select "Copy Link Location".  This will give you a long url.  For example, you can get something like this:

http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_foros_responder.asp?efid=113&efcid=1&efidt=23177&efidc=760337

2) There are two changes you need to make before going to the above address.  Find the word "responder" and change it to "editar".  Additionally, take the very last "c" in the address and change it to a "m".  The result should look like this:

http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_foros_editar.asp?efid=113&efcid=1&efidt=23177&efidm=760337

3) Enter it into your web browser and everything should work out.

After the FAQ released, that's the biggest news of the century

Thanks again to the friend who cracked this, and enjoy

So you guys figured it out, eh? Ahahaha…. I wasn't sure if I should share it, personally. How else have I been changing the Daoloth thread for two years :P

"Ashcan" Pete will take that off your hands when you're done with it.
Charlie Kane would befriend a strangled cat if given the chance.
Finn Edwards has very deep pockets.
Hank Samson does not care that you've mastered time travel.
Lily Chen can punch a hue.
Lola Hayes is the world's best Egyptologist.
Mark Harrigan is very good at hedge mazes.
Michael McGlen has never experienced an earthquake.
Minh Thi Phan makes group hugs empowering.
Patrice Hathaway plays songs you can't get out of your head.
Tommy Muldoon is most qualified to be deputy, yet for some reason nobody want him to be.
Tony Morgan sells meat out of the back of his van.
Ursula Downs can shop at an empty store.
Wendy Adams always wins at hide and seek.
William Yorick has a Bachelor's in Cryptozoology—no wonder he can't find work.
Wilson Richards will paint over anything for a dollar.
Zoey Samaras can torch a fire vampire.

::laughter:: generally speaking, the "edit" button should work for the first topic of every thread, even without hacking the message, shouldn't it?

Well, the edit button vanishes for initial posts just like with responses. So, no dice.
