We Do have the ability to edit comments, will this count since you can delete the contents even though there is an edit history?

@ShitakiIntaki changing it to a blank message still leaves the trace you left a comment, and it also shows the og comment in edit history, so i think it shouldn't count. If the username was shown (deleted) but comment stayed, i think that should count as it separates user and comment

@firstuserhere editing won't count. For this market to resolve YES there has to be an option that let's you completely remove all trace of you commenting in the first place.

On one hand I hope so, because often I wish either edit or delete was available.

On the other hand, I really don't want to see tons of [deleted]-[deleted]-[deleted] type of threads, especially in markets where relatively controversial topics are discussed. Don't know how a delete function would affect the moderation on the platform and the public-discussion (esp if manifold implements a direct messaging option)
