    I used a tool to mangle my comments last June, manually verifying that every single comment in my decade+ account history was changed.
    About a month ago I looked at my profile, and several comments — including ones on the first page of my profile (that I definitely know would have been edited, that close to the top) — were reverted to their unedited state.

    I wonder if an edit then delete would do it - multiple steps.

      They probably look for edits after a certain amount of time has passed from the original comment or post. It wouldn’t matter how many edits you make after that initial time period. They’d just revert back to the one before the long time period, if it exists. That’s how I’d do it, anyway.
