Comment editing disabled

What's the reason for disabling this, please?

I agree, editing comments will cause confusion, and should be disabled. Except maybe if you hit "edit" within 1 minute after submission for last minute fixes.

However being able to edit production notes should be mandatory.

for the most part, "comments" and "discuss this entry" are redundant - and "comments" will have to go. once that happened, editing for the other stuff on the entry page comes back. sometime in 2030 :)

comments definitly belong to the release page and not to the forums.

The ability of editing old comments is cancer. I have seen quite a few times when discussions became totally out of context because poopfaces deleted/edited their old comments the others poopfaces were answering/reacting to.

cant decide wether thats sarcasm

No, I'm not sarcastic at all. You are too a notorious comment deleter/editor, and I hate you for it.

Once you comment something, stand by your shit. Oh, your delicate soul can't cope with that? Well then, simply don't comment.

Anyhow, gotta agree that there has to be a middle ground in this topic.

Or do it like Skype. Be able to edit your comment if nobody has added any other new posts. I.e. only the last post is editable, and only editable by the author of the post. That goes for delete also. The rest is history as they say...

Which is exactly how it works here... GOOD!

Imho the only sane way to handle the issue would be to allow *everybody* editing *anything* including other people's comments!!112

Seriously, what Jaque van Arse said.

Oh come on Oswald, please don't pretend like you never did this.

Off the top of my head I could show you a quite long thread where we were discussing some stupid shit, and I turned to resemble a schizo arguing with myself after you deleted some of your comments I reacted to previously. Following that incident, I quickly developed a habit to always quote people if I answered to a comment, just in case someone got trigger happy again, but the disabled editing solved this problem for me. And I remember at least 3-4 similar instances of you deleting/editing old comments. I'd search for them, but now as I think of it I couldn't care less. So fuck you too :)

yeah thats one case only. not notorius.

and i removed those because it was idiot trolling or arguing dont remember, and I came to my senses later. All of that should have been nazi moderato deleted anyway. I hoped you will do the same.

there may have been other cases, when I realized what a stupid troll I was (am) and removed some after adding some butthurt stuff.

these days I manage to keep most of that stupid butthurt (oswaldbogar) stuff for myself.
