Is anyone else having problems modifying posts? For some reason when I try to edit I get an error message saying I haven't entered any text. This happens to me pretty frequently, but won't happen all the time. It's pretty annoying, as I don't like to double post, but sometimes I have to because the stupid modify feature just won't work! Help!

The edit has never not worked for me. I just edited a post maybe five minutes ago. I remember other posters saying the same thing you did about the error message and them not being able to edit stuff. I didn't believe they were actually trying to modify their posts rather than double post ;D but I guess they were telling the truth! (I have no advice for you though. Sorry!)

That did happen to me once. I think I took the text, copied it, then refreshed the page and pasted it back in.

I've never modified a post, but sometimes I have that problem when trying to post messages. I do exactly what Penny Lane suggested.

^Thanks, everyone. I have done what Penny Lane suggested. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The modifier is a fickle thing! ;D

^ Or just enter your post again after it says "you haven't entered any text." And if you double-post, then delete one of them.

^I know. It's very irritating, I must admit. It feels great when you see that all the boards are updated. But then you look at the name of the poster and the happiness is destroyed. What's the fun in posting hundreds of nonsense links?

What's the fun in posting hundreds of nonsense links? It is very irritating. Especially because now I have to search through a few pages on each board to find where the real updates are. It's times like these where we really need a mod or admin.

It actually doesn't have a gender. The poster is simply a spambot programmed to register at forums and post links with advertising. Because of spambots, we have captchas to prevent them from registering. you can read more about them here - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spambot

Unfortunately, the mods are MIA, which is really sucky
