changing the subject.


isnt it possible when editing the post? why?
i was trying to edit the subject of the thread about the avatar contest because i was wrong and typed the x instead of s. that changed the subject completely..
as long as a member cant delete a thread - even when there is no other post in it - wouldnt it be possible to give the member the possibility to edit also the subject at least?

I do not think that is as easy as adding permission to change the subject, but we would have to ask Skip.
This does not come up very often, usually what we do is PM a moderator and ask them to change it for us.

Actually you can change your Subject.

It's kind of a secret...... .....



The secret is that you have to be really fast when doing it. I have done it multiple times....as long you catch your mistake early, you can change it.

Hope it works for you next time.....

That's what Skip meant, you have 5 minutes to change the thread title on the outside and inside. After that, it will only change the insisde.
