Quote - Will the option to remove comments from a gallery image stay? I don't need this option, the only comment I do not welcome is a trolling remark, and those comments are either removed by the mods/coords (which is fine by me) or they stay to demonstrate the childishness of the troll in question (which is also fine by me).
I kind of like the idea of being able to delete comments like you describe. I took the opportunity to delete 2 remarks that I considered trolling because they stemmed from a board discussion and the people took it off board to my gallery, something I didn't appreciate at all. Said comments would not have been made otherwise, or if they had been, would not have been phrased in the manner that they were, which was to make a political statement and not just a comment on the art itself.
"It is good to see ourselves as
others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we
are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not
angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi
