    blaze_125 I see the light!

    Would it be possible to turn "ON" the option to allow users to modify their thread title?

    Like I told someone on a different board:
    Being able to "rebrand" your thread usually results in less messy message boards because you can rename your thread instead of creating a new one with a different title to catch the readers' eye.

    Thanks for the suggestion -- it is a good one, though there is one drawback: the thread title is part of our URL for each thread now so each time the thread title was changed the URL of the thread would also change (though it would be auto-redirected, I'm still considering the implications of this.)
