In all seriousness though --

I should point out the obvious: the thread title is NOT exempt from moderation, consideration of continued membership on CathInfo (being banned or not-banned), etc.

Don't think it's some kind of "freebie" where anything-goes.

One's continued CathInfo membership is riding on his ongoing following of the rules, which includes general decent behavior. That includes what goes in the "Subject" field as well as the body of the message itself.

So, in the end, it's not a problematic feature at all.

Ah, lighten up.  My comment about Sean was tongue-in-cheek, just an example since everyone knows we don't see eye to eye.  I was playing off Matthew's example of "Matthew is a jerk!"

Point I was trying to make is ... this can be abused and probably needs some restrictions.

So, for instance, if Croix were ever to get back on, he could respond to ever single thread in the recent treads list and change the title to "Ladislaus is an idiot".  I could have used any example, really, but chose to pick on Sean.

Just saying ... this has a potential for abuse.  I've actually noticed this feature before this post ... in an almost comical context.  Let's say OP creates a thread, "R&R is wrong."  Next guy changes the title "Sedevacantism is wrong", then back and forth :laugh1:

Lad should eat more sugar.

That's possible.
