Editing comments on the main site

Imagine this: You post a long compliment about someone's project. You submit the comment. You realize that you accidentally typed a swear word. You try to change it back, but you can't edit your comment. I can recall several times where I accidentally spelled a word wrong and wished I could do something about it. I really think we should be able to edit our comments on the main site. Anyone agree?

Re: Editing comments on the main site

Yes. I typed a comment on a project, and I accidentally misspelled the word "flag". Whoops. Then, I got a message from The Almighty Scratch Team.

Re: Editing comments on the main site

Yes, I agree. I think that several minutes after we post a comment, we should still be able to edit it or delete it. ^^

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. >.>

You can't even type "Skyscraper" without it sending a message to you.
I learned that the hard way.  sad

Re: Editing comments on the main site

Honestly, this is a feature that we should have had from the start.

Re: Editing comments on the main site

It censors swear words though and won't let you post the comment if it detects a not-allowed word.

Re: Editing comments on the main site

Yes, but it doesn't fix common spelling errors, even if it isn't a swear word. I've been playing this one RPG lately (I bookmarked it, you can look at it at My Stuff) and this one guy already made about 3 spelling errors. We should REALLY be able to edit our comments, nothing bad could come out of it.

Re: Editing comments on the main site

One time, I posted something like this.
The answer was no. If somebody posts a troll-ish or cyber-bullying comment, they could just edit or delete it before it gets flagged and/or they get banned. And I agree.

Thank you, good night.

Well, wouldn't that be good? If they edited it out, then the bad stuff won't even be in the comment.

Maybe there could be a 1 hour time limit for editing your comments, and a 24-hour time limit for deleting your own comments.

Re: Editing comments on the main site

This suggestion is a very good idea. However, users would be able to edit out words that would be less admirable for the website. This idea is unlikely to be added as a feature.

Re: Editing comments on the main site

Super Ultra Mega Bump.
Scratch Team, where are you?

Every time I bump this, I'm going to try to make it look different in a funny sort of way so that it doesn't look like this:

bump.
bump.
bump.
bump.
bump.
