to edit your posts. i know this works on the wii browser, i`ve not tried it on the pc yet.
click on edit. there`s a tool bar that appears above the text feild. click on the icon that looks like a magnifying glass with a dot in he middle of it. click on the text field. change the text you need to change. ok that. click on the magnifying glass again. then click on save.

It didn't work for my PC! I kept doing it over and over again and it won't do it! Every time I edit a post, I tried reloading the page, but It didn't display my edits on my post!

Are you hitting save after you edit?

Step 3: edit post
Step 4: repeat 2

Gabe, when you submit a post you can't edit it immediately. Refresh the page and look for your post. Then follow these guys advice. You can edit your post until one hour after it has been submitted. Afterward, the edit function disappears. Mods can edit at any time, if there is something you need to edit urgently, then contact a mod.

Sadly, the edit function is not working perfectly, so try the trick dizzy boy has explained above.
