Anyone else having a problem editing an answer here?

I answered a question and then noticed a couple of typos and tried to correct it, but it won't let me. Anybody else found this?

    Not long ago I had that problem as well and this is probably another glitch due to a grossly overloaded system that has 90 million global users.

    It means you have to be very careful and check your answer thoroughly before you press submit as you won't be able to edit your answer after you have posted it.

    Yep, more chance getting a pint in 2 minutes at the Queen Vic on a Saturday night.

    GLITCH for everyone. You must know that Y!A will ALWAYS have glitches.

    The edit glitch is BAD for experts because if someone adds "Additional Details", experts won't able to edit their answers due to the glitch.

    Yes, I've had to post three answers with errors on them - makes you look a right fool too - mind in my case it shouldn't be so bad.

    Annoying isn't it?

    Cheers.
