I know there's a section or a dev blog about the features , just can't remember where it is. Anyone have a link?

Are you talking about patch notes?

This is my gate. There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My gate is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my gate is useless. Without my gate, I am useless.

Cheers for the reply ranger.

No, i think there was a quick guide to formatting and editing and all that kind of stuff. Maybe it was all a dream though, can't find it anywhere now.

Basically I want to know how the editing works, the old forums used to give time stamps if a post was edited but it seems that you only see them now if its your own post, which is kinda useless.

I'm sure there's a way to see it if anyone can enlighten me.

Hello Kumisaapas,

There is a quick BB code formatting guide on top of the editor panel (a little "i" sign).

EDIT: See malaire's post below for the information on edits made to the posts and timestamps.

A few months back the first version of the eve-gate forums was introduced along with the dev blog New forums are (A)Live. It lists a few of the main features of the forums.

Unfortunatly stuff happened, and CCP had to take down the forum for some extensive refactoring.

The dev blog Forums are back up and open for testing! has a short list of some of the new features on these the new-new-forums.

If post has been edited, you see "Edited by: ..." text above the post. Move mouse over that text to see timestamp as tooltip, and also reason for editing if any. I'll edit this post so you can see that here.

As mentioned above by CCP Spitfire, it's in the (i) icon when you create a new post.

EDIT: I tried to copypasta the list, but it totally borks my post....just click the "i" in the middle of the icons in the new post page.
