Edit your comments!!

I think when you comment on a project, you should be able to edit them. For example, if you spell something wrong, and it's not just a typo but has a completly different meaning (for example, what if you typed not instead of no? Or vise-versa?), and for things that just don't sound right, that you realize after the fact?

I have been in many situations where I would have loved the ability to edit comments, but unfortunately, I couldn't. Please consider my suggestion. Thanks!  big_smile

Re: Edit your comments!!

Like I replied to Paddle2See, but instead of writing "...to..." I wrote "...t...".

I think it's a great idea!

Re: Edit your comments!!

Good idea, I have never liked how the comments are like "Once you post, it's final" so you can't correct yourself at all, unless you wanna reply to your own comment which makes you look weird sometimes.

I think it should be added, it'd make a very useful feature.

I agree. It's happened to me too.

Re: Edit your comments!!

I agree. However, you can always post another reply to explain your mistake. The problem is, we all hate that.

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Re: Edit your comments!!

Exactly what I said, posting a reply to fix your post is annoying, and bugs a lot of other people too >.<

Excellent idea!

Re: Edit your comments!!

It's a great idea...and it has actually been on the big list of "Things to Fix" for quite awhile.  It's just a question of priorities - finding the time to get it fixed  smile
