Livefyre Version 3 Update

　　Editing Comments

　　This was quite possibly one of the biggest requests we had from the community when we first switched to the new commenting system last year. Now users are able to edit their comments directly from the stream by clicking the edit link besides the comment. However, the caveat to that is you are given a limited time to edit your post. But don’t worry, you still have the option to fully delete what you posted if a day later you go back and decide that you didn’t want to troll that poor noob.

　　Rich Text Formatting: Now with more pretty!

　　The update now supports rich text formatting, you can now bold, italicize, underline, and include numbered or bulleted lists.

　　Notifications and Alerts: Hey, hey… LISTEN!

　　This got a major overhaul in regards to its functionality. For starters, when new comments are being posted, you'll see that the "New Comments" notification is less intrusive, showing at the bottom of the screen rather than in the middle of your content.

　　Next we have alerts, lets say you want to send a message to one of your GameSpot friends about the latest Pokemon news, by "@'ing" the user in the comments (Example @JodyR) it will now send an email notification to that user provided their settings allow that style of notification. This also works with people you are following on Twitter and as well as your friends on Facebook.

　　Also as a reminder, if you wish to receive notifications to your email address when someone has replied, or liked one of your comments, or posted in one of your blogs or an editorial that you commented in make sure that your notification settings are correct. To do this, go to your fuse.gamespot.com profile and select how and when you would like to be notified.

　　Media Overload: Youtube, Flickr, and Instagram… Oh my!

　　The new commenting system now supports linking to both images and video embeds from Youtube, Flickr, and Instagram accounts.

　　Flagging Abuse: Who you gonna’ call?

　　We’ve all seen our fair share of abuse in the comments section of various stories and articles, well now in addition to your ability to flag the comment as Off-Topic, Disagree, Offensive, or Spam you can now enter text with extra info pertaining to your report.
