i just wrote this hack of the comments module for you -- patch your comments.module with this file and give the user group you want to be able to moderate their own nodes rights in the admin CP, i called it "administer comments in own node".

this is a patch against 4.7.4

good luck!

Hehehe, I looked at this last night and came up with some very similar stuff. I thought there might be a way to use the built in functionality of Drupal to handle user_owns_node. I suppose this is much better than doing a node_load (since you only want 1 field).

A contributed module that allows users to edit / delete comments on nodes for which they have the update permission will become available this week.

Dunno what happened to the module that was supposedly coming out last year.
Here it is again, only for Drupal 5... (pretty much the same)

I just contributed a module to allow users to delete comments made to their nodes:
http://drupal.org/project/usercomment

I didn't add an edit link b/c my site didn't want it, but if i have some time, perhaps I'll make the module a bit more generic and have the links shown be a configurable option or something.

This Module allows the post(node) author to delete comments from his post.
What if I want to give same access to Group Admin. Is There any option or any module that helps us do this.

Thanks
