Delete comments 🤷🏼‍♂️

why can't we delete our own comments under a post isn't that a bit out of date we live in 2025 come on. if you make a spelling mistake or something people sometimes misunderstand it why can't you edit or delete your post

You can edit it within 15 minutes, gear symbol to right of your name line above comments.

(and then it shows as “edited”, see this one)

(Delete, not really, but can remove all the text and basically will be a blank comment then. Or ask a Mod or Guardian if after 15 minutes)

There are times when I've typed out a comment, then changed my mind about posting it. Left the forum, then came back to the post hours later, and the comment was still sitting there waiting to be posted. I had to highlight and cut to delete the comment. There should be a simple Delete or Cancel option.

Automatic “Save Draft” will periodically (yes, way too often) happen as you type a comment.
Another issue is that sometimes when the Auto Save Draft clicks in just as you go to press the actual Post Comment, and so it doesn’t post (because it is doing the Auto Save routine at that moment instead).
Annoying and then you have to press Post Comment a 2nd time.

But the Auto Save Draft is what is causing your case here, coming back later and it is still there (in this case you know you did not actually post it yet).
But instead of just backspacing all the text in it, you can go to your “MY DRAFTS” under right side Quick Links. And you can just Delete that whole unposted Draft (no matter whether it was a new Post you were making, or just a Comment in another post).

If you’ve never gone into that “MY DRAFTS” before, you may find a ton of ones “saved” in there, not posted, and probably well forgotten about.

“My Drafts” link doesn’t always appear under Quick Links (specifically, for some strange reason, it is not there when looking at your own profile). But it is there when looking at any post or from main forums lists pages.

***Oh, Wow. Just went to it today, and My Drafts page is a totally new forum layout, White with Blue top frame. Not the regular Black Forums page as these are it,
Wondering if maybe the whole Forums is in process of being converted to a new layout ??

Third option down the drafts that what it will look like

(above)
That must be on Mobile browser ? Looks like you get there via Drop-Down menu in main Forums,
(on full browser it always has Quick Links section on right side, but full version has more room I guess)

And yes, new Blue/White layout for Saved Drafts is new, was still the normal Black like rest of Forums as of at least maybe a couple days ago
