Comment Moderation

Lately I have noticed how some people post information I personally think is unnecessary / breaks my sites rules. I don't want to delete their entire comment, but instead edit / remove the section of their comment that breaks the rules. (For example, if someone writes a very useful comment, but includes an email address / website, I would edit their comment and remove the email address / website. This way I don't have to delete their entire comment)

Is it possible for this feature to be added in the future? 2  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

That is a good suggestion. In the meantime, what you can do is as follows: I will show examples here:

If the objectionable comments are in the original thread, you can copy and paste the content into a new thread and give credit for the post.

See this thread.

Or if it the thread contains a reply, you can quote and reply to the post. Then edit the quote as needed and delete that reply. See below. I did not delete reply #1, simply edited the quote. Quote by cryingdove edited for unnecessary comments. Do you find this valuable?

Thank you for the suggestion, and I have been doing that for a while.
However, the feature I requested would make comment moderation much more helpful. Do you find this valuable?

Wait... Isn't that thread necromancy (spell?)? Considering this last post before bellswebster's is from 12 days ago? O.o Do you find this valuable?
