Being able to edit and delete any of your comment

I suggest that you should be able to delete any of your comment. Since you might have wrote something that you didn't want to. I changed this from also being able to edit comments since it would be hard for moderators to check the whole edit history but deleting will make them have to see only one comment so it would be easier for the moderators than also being able to edit your comments.

One of the reason why this feature should be added is because you might have wrote something that you didn't want to accidentally or you wrote something that you changed your mind on. Another reason is because you might have wrote a typo. Even if you delete or edit your comment, scratch team members can still view your old or deleted comments. If someone bullies you than go to their profile and report them. When you report them, put the link that they bullied you on.
I know, right? Everytime I make a mistake, I have to say all my corrections, and I can't edit it?

No support. If someone says something bad on someone else's profile and immediately edit it, then only you and the profile owner will know.

Think of this:
“You're a filthy cat lover! I hate you” being immediately edited to “Flowers and kittens are the best!” It could be used for PMing as well, which is rejected.

Then there would be a comment history that shows the previous appearances of the comments. When a comment is edited, the previous text is recorded in the history for future viewing.

Support but only if you can edit or delete comments within 30 seconds of posting (since no one has time to read messages in half a minute)

As I said above, scratch team members can still see comments before the edits.

Support for Scratchers (not new scratchers) to edit comments before leaving the page. Once the page is left, the comment can't be changed.

Yes - but the community can't, and the ST rely on reports to find a lot of inappropriate content.

Unfortunately, we ran into some situations where people were abusing that feature to have secret conversations - so it was removed. We apologize for the inconvenience.

very.

Workarounds: (1) Click post only once your comment is the one you want to post. (2) Add another comment correcting the earlier one.

I changed it so you can only delete so the scratch team only has to see one comment instead of the whole editing history.

Yes, I believe this is in the sticky topic of rejected suggestions.
