Description
Description:
There is no way to prevent users from editing someone else's messages, so that they can still edit their own messages
Steps to reproduce:
- Go to Permissions
- Enter "message" in the search box
- The results will not include Edit own message
Expected behavior:
Some users would like their messages not to be able to be edited by others, but to be able to edit their own messages at the same time
Actual behavior:
You can only completely prohibit the editing of messages
Server Setup Information:
- Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 3.12.1
- Operating System: Debian
- Deployment Method: Docker
- Number of Running Instances: 1
