a peanut Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Idea in a nutshell: "Maybe allow only the 1st post to be edited ad nauseam, so as to prevent shenanigans?" I was curious on the thoughts of allowing the suggester to continuously edit their comment regardless of how long ago they made the suggestion. This would allow for additional proof to be added with ease, and keep it from getting lost in the comments. My example would be my latest suggestion: Strange Construction PDA. With a new item like this there are very limited amounts of proof to be found immediately, but there is proof to be found alter on, so there had to be additions comments made showing proof. I'm well aware that all proof should be found prior to the suggestion, but sometimes more can, and usually is, found after the time to edit the pinned comment has expired. Let me know what you think, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief D Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 That is what I meant, sorry if that wasn't clear enough. Well here you can edit the first post to make it clearer. Also, I approve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a peanut Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 Bump. (Sorry if this is against the rules, I've seen it on a few other posts so I figured it was okay). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleverpun Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I think the current system of adding additional comments/replying to other comments is a much better idea--it creates some sense of progression and accountability. It might be helpful in some ways, but it doesn't really provide anything over the current system, and the convenience is not worth the potential abuse. I'mma have to say "no."

Well, no, see comments can already be edited within a one hour period. It's not changing much beyond that opening comment, and that comment can still be replied to. It provides the ability to add additional proof, respond to common ideas, and much more, while not really being that abusable since it's a single comment.

I understand what you are saying, but here is where the suggestion stems from: here. Specifically referring to Chief's Comment. Having a lot of proof thrown around can lead to people missing certain proof that may be crucial for or against a suggestion. Let me know what you think about it, if you're still no, then let me take you to dinner and movie to at least pay you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the problem, but an hour is already way more than enough time to arrange your proof. I don't see why you'd need so much extra time, and changing the first comment constantly could be just as disorienting to voters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
