Frey just edited her tag - you can see a message along the bottom indicating that. On Dreamwidth, you cannot edit comments after they have been replied to, so once I've tagged her back, she will not be able to correct any more errors.
You can't see it, but when Frey is logged in, she sees these icons in the grey comment header:
The first allows her to edit her comment, and the second allows her to delete it. Once I've replied, the first vanishes. She can still delete her comment entirely if she wishes.
Now, because I made this post, I have a few extra privileges when it comes to the comments under it. When I'm logged in and I look at Frey's comments on this post, this is what I see in the same space:
Naturally, there's no edit button - only she can do that. But in addition to deleting her comment, I also have the option of screening, freezing, or tracking it.
You'll hardly ever see or use these functions in the course of normal roleplay. Screening a comment makes it invisible to everyone but the person who made the comment and the person who made the post; freezing a comment keeps it visible, but removes the option to reply to that comment or anything under it. They're usually used when you need to moderate a discussion or perform administrative functions when running a large roleplay game. Tracking is...well, I'll cover that later.
When I look at this comment after posting it, I'll see the same four icons, plus the edit icon - because nobody has replied to my comment yet, I can still edit it.
