Hello habra community! I can’t understand - a bug or a feature - my friends and I decided to get together in a skype group chat. I didn't create the group. We talked, I needed to quote a message from one of my friends, and then I found out that each of us can edit any other person's message. I am not the creator of the group. We indulged in editing each other's messages, and then I decided to ask a question to Skype technical support. I didn’t get a clear answer - they answered me in the spirit of “you are confusing, you can only edit your messages,” although I even sent screenshots to them with evidence.

So the question is, is this a bug or a feature?

Exactly! We are four people. I was invited. And we, each of the four of us, edited the other's posts.

I've now checked on my group chat and I can't edit anything. I have MASTER status and e 2 others too, although based on the bliznezz article, different participants cannot perform the same role.
