I see I can edit my own posts in this forum if I click on the three dots.

I want to be able to edit my posts in all forums, including the play by forum one.

Actually, I can edit my above post, as well. It is in the Play Boardgames forum that I cannot. And again, it is the mislabeled title that I wish to fix, in this case.

Actually, the primary reason is spam. In some situations, IL is correct but yes somebody’s first post could be a link to a map so that you could talk about strategy.

10 posts is either very hard or very easy but I think if you dive in and respond to a few posts in a constructive manner, you’ll find it’s quite easy. One idea is to revive a really old conversation with your ideas on it.

@Imperious:

Because we don’t want spam. Your first post and you want a link usually means you could care less about this site and just want a shout out.

Just post about the game in some meaningful way, sharing your ideas, strategy.

That does not require a link

You may be right YG.

However IL has been a great supporter of the forum over the years. Hopefully that will extend to moving this forward with dj.

Thanks again Wolfshanze for your help.

I believe inline pic posting is disabled, but if you click on the button of the picture (2nd row, 2nd button), then fill in the URL of your pic, it may show up.

Otherwise, you have to click on the additional options link below the message field and attach the file.

Yea, and it’s still in the shop too.

Here’s the sit (pronounced “sitch”)

I run off a laptop all the time.  A 90 watt power supply uses significantly less power than a 600 watt power supply, especially if you leave your machine on 24/7 like I do. (Yes, I know, the damage from power up/power down is no longer significant like it was in the late 80’s and the old 8086 processors (80386 DX, 80486, etc)).

There is a lot of construction going on in my neighborhood atm.  The home owner’s association decided to reside and reroof all the units, so as you can imagine, the air is about as polluted as the air in Bejing China atm!

The system fan (that would be the big fan in the unit, not the heat sink/fan on the processor) got clogged with debris and the brushes (the things that make the fan blades move) wore out so the fan does not blow anymore.  Thus, the system builds up heat (despite the external cooling pad I had under it) and shuts down to prevent damage to the processor.

The unit is under warranty still, but since it is a laptop, they cannot just send me a fan to pop in there.  They have to remove the hard drives and RAM and put them into a completely new enclosure (yay me) which of course means a complete format and reload of the software (yay me again) before they can send it back.

So that’s what’s goin on.  (Yay me.)  So I get to sit in a library and try to get posts in every so often (yay me) but I have not disappeared!

I have canceled all my competition games at AAMC because there are time limits and new rounds of the tourney have to start, etc.  I’m confident that league games I have here will be fine to continue, since we technically have until at least December 1st to complete or get close to completion for the year.

I do ask that if it has been a few days (ie a week) and I have not posted, or you see I posted somewhere but not in your game, you bump it because by the time I get back, there are 13+ pages of new posts to go through and I sometimes miss games.

Thanks

Um…  Don’t kill me for not holding to my earlier commitment…

4000…

To All “Anonymous” Posters,

Can you do one of two things for us. Either register for a username (the email address requirement is only used for forgotten passwords) OR manually type in a signature at the end of your post.

We just need a way to distinguish between the different Anonymous posters especially within a single topic.

Thanks.
