Shoutbox: -Edit feature-

[✨101✨]

Hi guys,

I have had this idea for a while, just haven't had the time to send a pm to @Sora or make a thread about it.

Basically the idea is pretty simple, an 'edit' option in the shoutbox. So whenever a member sends a message, on the top right corner there can be an 'edit' button/command; if the user has made in error in communication or grammatical mistake, etc, they can 'edit' their message.

After a message has been edited, on the top left corner in small text, (edited) will be written to let others know the user edited his/her message. Moderators and @Sora will have the option to reveal the original message to themselves if they desire to do so.

What do you guys think?
(Feel free to give feedback or build onto this idea, thanks)

We just need people to not completely edit it. Like for example someone says Hi and the editor puts I don't like you or something. Maybe the ability can be given to experienced users.

All users are certain to only change their own messages?? I don't think that anyone who isn't staff will get the ability to change everyone's messages.

I think it's an excellent idea. If possible, implement it similar to the way Discord does that. And add the ability to delete messages.

I think that could, potentially, combat some of the disruptive/more combative conversations we sometimes see in shyoutbox.

Currently, once you've said something, there's no way to undo it -- and it's saved there in the archives for quite some time.

This would allow you to forgive someone, or take back something that you said to someone, finding out afterwards, that you took something the wrong way, and so on.

Not even Staff should be able to speak for someone else, and edit what they said.

Staff could be given the ability to delete messages, where they become abusive, or start to carry possible legal implications. Such an ability though, is one of the easiest to abuse, and must be carefully considered, before bestowing to anyone.

@Sora made this a thing now, so now you can edit and delete your shouts.
