Well... I can't speak for everyone here at nightly but I have to say, I never did like the results of the "edit post" button. Sure, the editing feature works fine and comes in handy when needed. It just after you've edited a post, it displays that redundant "this message was edited by such & such on 00-00-2005." Man, I hate that ****! It makes a post look so tacky just being there on any type of post. That's why I make damn good use of that PP button as I've mentioned on the Human torch's thread.

Also, how do I add my signature to every post even using the quick reply post feature without having to check the "show sig" box every single time I post?

Two things:

1. I believe they did delay the edited message line by a minute or two - so if you caught your mistake quick enough, no 'this message was edited by' line. And I don't think it's a bad deal - one of the new powermad mods in Lando edited my post for no reason and I needed that line to show me who it was so I may put a curse on ... I've said too much already.

&

2. Can't the SHOW SIGNATURE option always be checked on?

I never think about the future. It comes soon enough.

Yes. It can in FRF. But I don't want to have to check it everytime I make a post. I used to be able to post and my sig would automatically display along with (which is what I want). Maybe it's something I have to do in profile edit.

1. Primbud is right. We give you 5 minutes to edit your original post without having the "edited by" stamp.

2. Go to my profile > edit profile > and then Check 'Show Signature' by default

Attn: Administrators

You know, my signiture still wont show when I post using FRF. I still have to check the 'show sig' box. [Unimpressed]
It only automatically appears when I post using QR.
I like to post using FRF most often.

(but this is minor, so if you can't fix it, disregard)

^Worked for me.

Your cookies are probably messed up. Go to your profile, click 'Delete All Cookies', login again and see if it works.

Sometimes my sig disappears too, but very seldom and this occurrence is spotty at best.

Sometimes my avatar disappears too ......... but that's another story.
