Okay okay okay.
We all mess up in the shoutbox.
Jkaay we're looking at you kek

Basically, I propose that MC-Market should add the ability for Supreme, or Premium members, or w/e you want, to be able to delete their shoutbox messages.
(These can only be the ones visible, not like go back in history
like the time warp trio you used to watch in school and delete it.)

This would help cut down spam a lot, and I mean a lot. Like sometimes I spam emoji's just for the fun of it
like i'm some teenage girl on instagram

Yeah, so let me here your ideas on this.

EDIT: EVERY SINGLE TIME, I come onto shout box, somebody tries to whisper, and it fails, and sometimes they release private info such as a project they are working on, or they just don't want other to see it.

EDIT #2: If this becomes some sort of abuse. Then staff should be able to view deleted messages in history, but members cannot.

EDIT #3: This is now a community discussion, so we can show Mick why we need this. We need to explain in full depth of why this would help, and just encourage him to approve this!

Thanks,
Mango. :p.

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

This used to be allowed, but staff removed it for some fuckin' reason...
I think it was being abused.
Then there should be a cool down, or a limit to it.
Don't see how it would be abused.

Let me edit something in that would help out.

May I ask the back story to this?
Kappa
Mainly people doing
/whipser [Zeiyon] Yeah, let's be sure to have bla- bla- bla- bla- bla-.

But, it would just overall help people not make as much mistakes such as grammar, or they say something wrong, or w/e.

He tried to whisper his email but everyone saw it Kappa

But in all seriousness, yes, this is a good idea. I support it.

I think this would work if members can only delete their messages within 30~ seconds of them posting it.
Let's say ~5 seconds, since if they post their email, like I did a fake one in chat today to see reactions as a "typo whisper", then people could see it for 30 seconds, but why not 5 seconds? I mean like, if they post their password to something, which would be dumb, then... RIP.

Dude..

I'm saying they have around a 30 second limit to click the delete button before they can't delete it anymore, it would be deleted instantly once clicked lol

Oh, yeah, a 30 second LIMIT. I thought you meant minimum.

The reason why they said this was removed is because it messes with the archives, so Lyphiard just needs to add a way to make it save to the archive regardless of it it were deleted or not.

If someone managed to post their password in a public forum shoutbox.... then they deserve all the repercussions haha.

I still support this suggestion though.[DOUBLEPOST=1484624363][/DOUBLEPOST]

There's another issue. If the message is sent out, then someone could simply write some code in Javascript to stop the messages from being deleted from their shoutbox on their screen.

So really, once it's sent, you're never 100% able to take it back.
