Feature requests? (4 Word Minimum)

@evan

Here's a few: how about a button to show newest comments first? Also, showing comments on a user's contributions? would make it easier to see if people are spamming or not.

another helpful thing would to be if irobot could add a comment to questions that used to be a comment or answer saying "this question was originally a comment/answer on (insert link here)"

and something really useful would be the ability to edit comments. (then you dont have to remove the whole comment if they included their email in it.)

Thanks!

Comments are in the activity section section but only mods and admins can view that. Mods can also edit comments. I dont think users should get to edit someone else's comment.

@captainsnowball "irobot could add a comment to questions that used to be a comment or answer saying "this question was originally a comment/answer on (insert link here)" does not work if it is a voted on change or done by a moderator. That is why you do not want to try to convert an old comment or answer to a new question. It will be orphaned. If the OP of that comment or answer has not come back to it within a few days, rest assured it has been abandoned. Leave it alone or mark for deletion by picking "remove as duplicate or off-topic".

how would you mark it for deletion? none of the moderator actions apply to it.

you are right. The proper terminology is "remove as duplicate or off-topic"
