Keep up the good work.

Was there a recent edit or something to the forums? My topic was created around late July and it says I can't edit the first post of my topic. I have to wait 10080 minutes.

I'm pretty sure it's been past 10080 minutes. A little help? I searched around the forums and found nothing about this issue...

Thank you.

EDIT: Guess I didn't use the right keywords for searching. Thank you and sorry XD (if this goes through, that'd be nice)

If there is disagreement, I am listening.

Here's my scenario in which this is inconvenient:  I've got The Big Wii U Game Hoard thread, and as a convenience to those browsing, I'm keeping the first post as up-to-date (and organized) as possible so all the games are easy to find (so people don't have to burrow down into every page).

Now that my edit button is missing, I'm not sure of the best way to accomplish this in an organized way, as I plan on ripping the entire Wii U library onto TPB.

Thoughts?

There's no need to have your entire library of torrents in the OP, that's what having a thread in there is for - so you can showcase your uploads. I don't think anyone is going to feel inconvenienced just because they have to scroll down a little, or even view another page to see more, and I wouldn't call scrolling down a page 'burrowing.' If a person is too lazy to scroll downwards to read, then they're probably too lazy to even play a game.

Have a look at how other uploaders showcase their uploads and follow their example if it suits you. You may want to highlight one torrent per post, or several. Include an image to make your post stand out from other replies to your thread, most people searching for something probably won't read the posts made by others anyway.

A fair response. Thank you kindly for the explanation. 

Time to continue flooding TPB with Wii U games.
