Edit Comment
We all make typos no matter what when we comment. So why not be able to fix it. My idea is just to have a little edit button next to your comment and have an oppurtunity to fix it

Re: Edit Comment
you have to copy-paste the link like create another tab copy the link then paste the link, but it depends on where you are. if your in a gallery it doesnt work period. if your in a project then it should work if scratch related.

Re: Edit Comment
yeah there should also be a delete button. there are a lot of times i have seen comments that say something and then another comment later they say "nevermind, delete that last comment" it would be easier to just delete the first comment.

Rockie, The creator of the topic/project can do that

i know but it would be better if the person who made the comment could delete his or her own comment.

Re: Edit Comment
I support it. like if you dont know the controls to a game you might say "this is stupid"
and then you download it and you find out the controls and its really fun!

Re: Edit Comment
Well but if you want to write something and it comes out wrong it might be rude and you didn't mean it to be and sometimes my comments getshortcut and I'll be in the middle of writing something and then it will go down and I can't delete it and you used to be able to delete your own comments

Re: Edit Comment
Nice idea! Count me in.
I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>Offline

But when you talk to people, you can't make typos.

Re: Edit Comment
I think that allowing people to delete their own comments is an excellent idea.
Editing is also a good idea, but perhaps a bit more of a problem, both to implement and to keep track of a conversation.
Of course, conversations on the forums allow editing and deleting, so people may have gotten used to that facility and expect it for comments as well (that is, they are expecting each project or gallery to be essentially a topic in the forums).

Not to mention it can have a little message saying when it was last edited. For the comments not delted of course
