How does that address any of the the problems discussed in this thread? What benefit does that have for anyone? Do you really want hundreds of new threads every day spamming the forums and pushing WTB/WTS posts off the first page much faster? Do you really want to send PMs to dozens of people when you are looking to buy an item because there are dozens of orphaned threads for every item and no real way for buyers to tell if an item is sold or not (at least not without even more spam on the forums)?

If you are against people editing their posts can you be a little more constructive and explain why? What benefit not being able to edit posts will have in your eyes?

I see you've only posted in the EC forums 3 times, the last time was a year ago... if it doesn't affect you in any way and you don't care why even post? Trolling to troll on the Tech Discussion forums?
Are you ok dude? Was just making a suggestion. Good luck with your crusade!

Way to not answer any of the very reasonable questions I posed to you and fail at basic human communication. Thanks for the suggestion, you certainly saved the day.. No one would have thought of that on their own. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That's all fine, til someone searches an item you were selling an item 6 months ago and starts sending PMs. I'm not a regular item trader by any means but I can imagine that if you list new stuff 3-4 times a week that's going to be a lot of PMs for you and frustration for buyers.

Edit button for the EC forum at least would allow "business as usual". And Rogean if you're in the giving mood, how about the forum tags making a comeback in time for Velious? We loved those <3

Yep, it's already started.

Is there a way to look up all GM, Guide, Forum Moderator usernames? I'd like to foward them all the PMs I get like this.

If you do this, you are going to have a bad time.

Forwarding PMs sounds like pretty serious business!

Ya'll will need to bring it up with Rogean, theres nothing I can do here. I'm pretty sure he knows how to manage a forum but thanks for everyone insinuating the staff doesnt know what they're doing [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That would appear to be incorrect
