Suggested Improvement to Forum
Hello,
I realize we all have a finite amount of time to edit a post and there is probably a good reason for that. However I have a suggestion to allow the OP and only the OP to edit the Title of his/her #1 post at any time.
Allow me to explain further.
There are times when threads get lengthy and sometimes off topic. I might participate in a thread I'm interested in but then loose focus or interest once that thread has been around a long time and gets lengthy (plus 5 pages).
However I would be interested in re-visiting an old or long thread when the initial subject has changed.
For instance a Title may read, "Slide Outs won't move". Perhaps after some time and a few pages later the OP has an update of interest or maybe the OP solved the problem. The OP could post their new reply and then edit their #1 post Title to read something like, "Problem Solved - Slide Outs won't move" or "Update 6/1 - Slide Outs won't move"
If I was an original reader or contributor to that thread, seeing the edited Title might make me want to return to see what the OP did to solve his/her problem.
As an added bonus, when an OP sold something on the Classified site, he/she could change the title and mark it sold themselves vice having to ask for help in doing so.
Just a thought worth considering.

Ron
