The problem with your adding the requested information to your first post, is that it didn't bring up your thread as "has new content", so would be easy for people who had already seen the original to skip past because they (think) they know what's in it.
If you'd answered Sharm by just adding another post (whether you edited the original or not), people would have seen that you HAD added new content, as the thread title would have looked different in the forum. And they would have known to check it out. And you wouldn't have had to break the "no bumping within 72 hours" forum rule. :)
