I think after a month or so, posts become uneditable. This was a problem in the manga sales forums for a while *-*;

Not sure if this is fixable... I think mods can edit your posts after any time though.

PM an active mod with a link to the thread and what you want the text to say.  Be precise so they can just click "Quote", copy the text exactly, and post exactly what you want posted.

Here's the format I use:

I need my xth post in [url] edited to say the following:

Thank you.

Active is just used in a denotative term, meaning a moderator that is on the forums regularly. :P

I'd be happy to edit a post for you.

Off the top of my head, mods are:
JeffT
Radien
Tanis_Nikana
DancingTofu
Hawkeye

can't remember any others right now, but look for 7 blue or red stars under a person's username.

Oh, I thought she was. :P

I think that, between our two lists, that's most of the mods. 

Hope that helps!

I've just changed a couple of forum settings. (1) You can now modify posts up to a year old... but... (2) threads are auto-locked after 4, or 6, months of inactivity (which one depends on which forum and its usage patterns). As before, you can't edit a post in a locked thread, so mostly the auto-lock is the effective limit.

The length of the thread doesn't matter, just the time it was last posted in. So as long as the thread is active, it won't be regarded as an "old" thread since posting in it resets the age.
