Paragraphing and editing post on gamespot.com

Why does this not work for me sometimes? I single space, double space my paragraphs and it's like a 50/50 chance of it coming out right or ignoring everything I did and just making a wall of text for me instead. I mean c'mon now, that is so bogus. And the fact you cannot edit your post here makes it even worst.

I don't use many forums but I think this is the only one where you can't edit your post. Why is this? What is the reasoning behind this? If you make a mistake, forget to add something or your post didn't paragraph like you had it while you were making it. It just has to sit there like it is and/or you have to post again. And don't forget to add something twice, then there comes the tripple post.

And do I have to be at a certain level to delete my post or something? I have the option to do so but when I try..Yup it doesn't work, that's pretty awesome.

Is all this done to try and make us make sure we do things right the first time or something? Like the paragraphing problem I have, I DO do it right, but the forum/site or whatever just completely ignoreshow Ispaced my postsometimes and clumps it all together. It's pretty awesome when it happens on my long post too, it just creates this huge wall of text no one or only a few will read because of this. And what can I do to fix that? Absolutely nothing since there is no edit option.

I know there is a preveiw option,i've used it and the preveiw turns out to look the way I want it to look. But why does my post underneath the preveiw get clumped up into a wall of text? What if I notice something that needs to be changed or added? Then I have to go through and respace everything again. I don't know if that effects the way your post will turn out even though your/my preveiw looks how I want it to. I haven't tested that yet but will plan to do so on some random forum topic.

C'mon gamespot moderaters and admins or whatever, yall gotta fix this. There's other sites I use that have edit your post options, some whenever you want, some have a dy or two time limit. Yall need to do something like this. And also at some other sites when I preveiw my post, (get this!) my post underneath stays the same! Unbelievable right? So if I want to fix or add something, I won't have to re-paragraph my post again and cross my fingers hoping it will come out right since I can't edit my post here.

I don't even know if this post will turn out right. Come one yall step it up a lil bit. Is being able to edit our own post too much to ask? And wow, nice one on letting me edit my blog, at least I can do that. Why isn't this intergrated with the normal forums?
