okay, i'm not sure if this has been suggested before, but i think you should be able to edit/delete your own comments:
the idea is, a comment made by you would have a icon in the corner (maybe a pencil, or a gear), and when you click it it allows you to edit/delete that comment.
when you edit and save a comment, the comment would change to have a sign by the name that would say (edited). when you delete the comment, the text would either change to say (deleted) or simply dissapear.
Thanks!
thanks for the response!
i was also kind of skeptical on deleting comments,but i included it in my post in case anyone found it a good idea.
what I was thinking when I suggested the editing the comments was if, say you made a typo, or if something you commented is now either outdated, wrong, etc. I imagine people would probably abuse this too, but it would probably be worked around in some way.
i don't like the idea of deleting your own comments as much, but if it was implemented, it would probably be tweaked until it was harder/impossible to abuse with it, like editing.
(keep in mind, this is for comments in saves, you can already edit comments on the site, obviously)

Having refuted all of your reasons for not making the comments editable, will you concede?
