Idk about the meme itself. But it does make sense to be able to edit the title.

This: ***imgflip.com/i/7mdc7y*** is a meme I made, and I drew over the swear word so that I wouldn't get slapped with a NSFW label on the meme, but only after I made it, I realized that the drawing covering the swear was shifted up, and I can't do anything to change it :/

Also, I know that small users will probably edit all of their memes if they got onto the front page and say smt cringe like "Edit: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR 100 UPVOTES OH MY GOSH", and it would ruin half of the front page memes, but idk... I think it would still be useful :)

This only happens if you draw on something using the draw tool, and then add spacing after it. This is why I tend to add spacing first, add my text, and then proceed to use the draw tool and cover up any swears.

Unfortunately true :1 maybe the meme should be editable for the first hour?

editing the image at all is bad
Like someone can post a normal meme but then edit it to porn so it can be approved
Yeah there’s millions of ways that can go wrong

Never thought of that :/

But once you make the edit a moderator has to approve it

Yes :/

No. That would cause people to post things that aren't for the stream

I’m surprised this doesn’t get talked about more

Probably because most people already know that it’s a problematic idea…

Even if it’s problematic, maybe you could edit it before it gets submitted (or within 1 hour of posting) so that people don’t put p*rn on it

Yeah :]

And the mods could review your image after it’s been submitted

Yep ^-^

i thought you could already edit it

Not the meme itself, only the title, among other things

I'd rather be able to edit comments.

Sure it can be frustrating to have to remake a meme because of a mistake, but it would be far more difficult to add the ability to edit them.

Comments on the other hand are just text, and I imagine it would be easier to edit.

That might lead to cringe "Edit: [enter cringe message here]" comments, and perhaps other problems that I can't think of, but I agree :]
