editing a post

I have never been able to edit my posts. It's frustrating.
Is there a solution other than just not posting ?

Seems to me that most of the time I can't edit after someone else has posted.

You could cut and paste your text, edit it to read the way you want, then post as a reply to yourself with a not saying you edited it...

You are correct. Once someone else has posted in the thread, you cannot edit the original post. You can PM one of the moderators if necessary and ask them to change the post.
