Deleting a comment
-
Is there a way to delete a comment? Or is that based on reputation points? I commented myself here[^] instead of the comment I intended to comment. :wtf: So I tried to delete the first comment, but it's still there, although flagged as deleted, but it looks like it's possible to post additional comments on it.

Hover over the comment and a red X icon should appear, and possibly a Edit icon. click those to delete / edit as required.

That's what I did. I can still see the deleted comment, along with a red flag saying 'deleted'. Or am I maybe the only one who can see it?

I can't see anything marked deleted, so it must be just you who can see it.

I think you can't delete comments which has any replies.(Like messages in forum)

Ok. But the comment in question didn't have any replies. But it seems I'm the only one who can see the deleted comment.

When you delete the comment, it is not actually deleted from the entire universe, it lingers on like a nebula after a nova, or a fart after sprouts. What happens is that it is flagged as deleted, only the OP can see it, it is hidden from everyone else. So although it may annoy you by its very presence in the thread, rest assured that you are the only one who can see it. (Seems a little like mild psychosis!)
