Thread title request system

[I_DONT_BOT]

To be honest, a system that's similar to the UT request (which goes through matthew) would be better IMHO.

Uhh, did you even read the OP? Thats exactly what I'm suggesting.

I think we should have a thread title request system much like how the usertitle requests and such are handled, the user would just go to the page, put in what they want their title to be, and a moderator with sufficient permissions would approve or deny their request.

Not sure if I'm misunderstanding or something.

Your idea seems alright to me, but wouldn't it be much easier if the original poster could edit his own title?

Can anybody explain me why we can't?

Full support from me, makes things easy for everyone seemingly

I like the idea, and would support, but this ...

He says on the first page,

We don't allow people to change their own titles for the simple reason that they can use it for malicious purposes, such as falsely putting [Ex-Moderator] and what not in their titles. Yes they could just make a new thread, but it wouldn't be as beneficial because they'd lose all the posts in their old one and what not.

Having normal users edit their own title is not an option, so I think this would be the best alternative.

I support the suggestion

Sounds like a good idea. People used to PM me about that back in the day.

Theres would be no reason not to support this just makes life easier *SUPPORT*

 

[joj0r]

but maybe with a changing history, that everyone can see when a user changed their thread title

 

Support, this would definitely increase efficiency! Good suggestion, Corey and DjWeasel.

 

Support, N4N0 post ur seal of approval nao for this idea
current system is bit slow and sometimes requests are "forgotten"
