I have a tendency to edit forum posts more than your average joe, so to speak. Similar to writing essays it helps me to start with a rough draft and then polish it up.

How do I delete a post? Does that require a minimum number of posts first, or do I need to PM a moderator or what? Please and thanks :)
You can only delete for a very short time if it's the last post in the thread. Mods tend to lock threads alot more than the delete posts.

Probably only once or twice...if it's a crucial detail I've left out, then I edit my post to add it, but if it's something like a punctuation error or a small typo, I just figure, "Ahh, it's okay, no one'll notice."

I constantly have to fix my posts. Most don't get posted as originally written. Practice doesn't seem to make perfect in this as I have made 18,000+ posts in three forums in the span of one year :P
