What if you wanted to see the previous edits of a post that was edited? Well with the past-seeker-3000-inator you get to see previous edits of a post with a single click!

If you clicked the “Last edited by” part you would get a table (like the sub forums) with columns for when it was last edited, the person that edited it and the title of the post. Then every inserted row would be every time someone edited the post.

On the image above if you clicked one of the previous titles then it will bring you back to the time when the forum post was like that. Basically like the feature on the scratch wiki to go back in time to when the page was different.

What if i edited a post cuz it broke thre CG, or the ST edited it? Or if i revealed personal information.

Then the ST could have a secret toggle to disable seeing previous edits on that specific post/topic
Also if it broke the CG it would of been deleted instead

Sorry, no support. Maybe a useful feature for the Scratch Team, though. People edit their posts for a reason. Would you like it if everyone would be able to see your previous versions of a post, if it has some things you decide that it's better to not say it? Think about it. Nice idea, though.

But, the user wouldn’t have that option. Not good if the user names an extension or went around the filter.
Quote it and see what i did.

If you wanted nobody to see your previous versions of your post/topic then you can report it to the scratch team so they could disable that feature

The ST takes a while to respond to reports cuz theyre quite a small group. So, if i doxxed myself, than realized what i did, anyone could have my personal info for a while.

Usually. Sometimes, they take a while. So, not worth the risk.

possible dupe? it didn't exactly say a way to see previous edits though.
this dupe talks about an edit history, it's more similar to this one

Those ones are ToTaLlY DiFfErEnT

It appears #2 is what you’re suggesting.

Thanks for the link! It does look like this is a duplicate topic so I'll close it to keep the conversation all in one place. Please use the existing topic in the link above.
