A while ago I saw someone make a suggestion about being able to see who's currently typing like in Discord and I had suggestion to go along with that theme. What if we were able to go back and edit chats that we had already sent, once again similar to Discord? It would be nice to be able to correct any typos I made without having to send another message.

This really sounds interesting tho sounds kind of hard to code however it would be very lovely to have the option to edit our messages. Agreed.

I love this idea - however there seems that there would be one major flaw - that being the fact that members breaking the rules cant simply edit their texts to sort of evade the behavior and prevent users from screenshotting.

But on the other hand, I can see a filtration system being put in that automatically kicks or warns a member who says a word that is, say, blacklisted

Idea is awesome, but agree with Morqque - had some situations with reporting, it would make it more difficult though. But I think that agree anyway!

Yeah, as Morqque said, I could def see this being abused. It is a good idea though, just most likely not something likely to be implemented.

This sounds great but I do agree with what Morqque said
