I'm going to offer my assistance if it's needed on solving the "not being able to edit the things later" issue. I don't actually mind thread tags and find them pretty useful, but I'm terrible about remembering to include them. Plus, it'll take a load off Fen if we can just go in and change them ourselves.

Is there any chance we'd be able to edit our own thread titles as well?

I mean basically my feeling is that if Seil threads were ever going to be annoying enough to be worth banning Seil, it would have happened years ago, so inasmuch as he - and this amazes me - consistently uses the Seil tag to tag those threads that are unarguably Seil threads (while - and this amazes me more - not using the Seil tag for those occasional times when he posts threads that aren't of that special subgenre known as the Seil Thread) we may as well get off his nuts for like... being Seil.

I hope you 4 people realize that I'll hunt you down. I will hunt you down and whine SO HARD at you.

I'm looking, but I can't seem to find the option.

There should be one. Unless they removed the option or Gaia has some sort of fancy custom code. Gaia runs on vB and (years ago, back when I was actually on it as a net newb) always let users edit their own titles.

If you want to open that up to users, it's my understanding that you have to increase the time limit for thread titles: "Time Limit on Editing of Thread Title". This would be in the Message Posting and Editing section.

I don't anticipate it'll become a problem, but if this is implemented and I start seeing people dicking around with thread titles -- especially on established threads -- without much reason it may not stick around.

Hell, if Gaia users can manage, I think we're mature enough.

Do you want an itemized list? Like EdxRoy, Yoda-dog, Xzibit, and ego-maniacal moderation?
