    1. How does editing work? I notice that i can no longer edit some of my comments. Is there a time limit?

    2. How do topics advance to the top? Is the top topic always the one with the most recent comment? It doesn’t seem to work that way. So how does it work?

    3. Why do new topics say two comments? is the title counted?

    Thanks

    yes there is a time limit from when you post within which you can edit your comment.

    topics advance to the top via most recent post but there may be enough posts coming in or a post waiting or something. i am not exactly too clear on that myself as you can tell

    when you are logged in, for some reason, when you post it registers as two comments and when you log out it goes down to two. i don’t know why it does that though

    hope i helped

    1. There is a time limit (I think 30 minutes but am not sure) and once edited it goes back to moderation for approval.

    2. Once posts are approved they get bumped to the top.

    3. There is a known bug that each of your posts that haven’t been approved yet appear as 2 posts for you but don’t appear for anyone else.

    There is a known bug that each of your posts that haven’t been approved yet appear as 2 posts for you but don’t appear for anyone else.

    It seems to be more complicated. Every post that I responded to seems to be off by one regardless of whether there are posts awaiting approval.

    The CR Laboratory: Try Your HTML Formatting Experiments Here

    italicize:

    first:

    <

    then:

    em

    then:

    >

    (no spaces)

    where you want to end the italics, do the same as above, but instead of em, type /em

    (To use bold, replace em with strong )

    ==================================================

    BTW, that whole ICOT thread is a lot of fun!

    …and replacing it with blockquote does this:

    text
