I'm downvoting because you're whining

How so? I thought my comments were sufficiently polite and formal.

because you made an assumption about who downvoted you based on little evidence

By "you" I didn't mean AndrewHickey, I just meant anyone reading the comment.

and because you've written a post that doesn't say what you now claim you intended it to say and are now blaming the readers for your own mistake.

I never blamed the readers. I admit that I worded it poorly. I didn't effectively communicate my meaning, so I posted comments to clarify. I'll try to rewrite my original post to more effectively express my intent.

Edit: I don't see how to edit my post—I do not see any "edit" button like the one on my comments. So I won't be editing it unless I figure out how.

At the bottom of your post you should see an icon that looks like a piece of paper with a pencil on it. Click that to edit your post.

EDIT: Oops. Just realized that you already know how to edit comments, so you probably know about the icon. The fact that it isn't appearing on your post might be a glitch then.

I looked for that button earlier and didn't see it, but I see it now. So either I missed it, or it disappeared for some reason.

But it looks like I still can't edit it because I no longer have permission to post in Main. I guess I'll move it to Discussion....

You definitely can edit your posts. Hover over buttons one will say edit. Make sure you are logged in to the site when doing it.
