This is driving me crazy, I edit my review, post it, but i still see the old version. Even worse, if i go edit my review again i can see the new version in the edit form, but the one visible on the website for reading only shows the old version! http://www.gamespot.com/king-arthur-ii-the-role-playing-wargame/user-reviews/786610/ This is on the king arthur 2 review, but I remember that it happened to me last year on other titles. I just never bothered to report it until now.

Note that I did refresh the page in my browser a billion times and even emptied my browser cache. This is definitely an issue with the Gamespot website.

GS caches pages on the server side, which means edits to reviews aren't always reflected straight away. Usually it just needs you wait a bit, or staff can force a cache update.

And Mods now(honestly it probably has to do with being logged on the VPN and not our position on GS)! I just did a force profile refresh. Let me know if it changed anything or not.

I had waited 2 days and my post didn't update, so no i don't believe it was just a cache issue. Unless the cache feature is broken somehow. Thanks dracula, I can see that my review is up to date now. But i have a question... what should i do next time i need to edit a review? do i need to edit and post here for a mod to refresh it? Seems a bit broken for such a big site as Gamespot doesn't it...
