The forum appears to allow me admin controls

Echnaton:
At the bottom of the page for the tread I started are controls for to "lock topic" and "remove topic."  This may be a default setting for the software but in light of the Playdor event, I don't think we want that control to be available to every thread originator.

Hmm. I'll have to take a good look at the settings. You're right that we don't want just anyone to be able to delete threads.

Echnaton:
The software allows for post removal too, as was successfully done with the  announcement of using the lock thread button.   Is there a way to put a time limit on editing or deleting old posts?  We've had a few revisionist on the forum in the past as well.

This post also serves as my notice of using the unlock thread feature.

I can't imagine that you want to give up your practically God like control over hoax believers.  8)  Although maybe it is more of a demi-god stance or perhaps just a being a demiurge. 

LunarOrbit:
I've removed your God-like abilities. ;)

Thanks for pointing out that hole in the forum permissions.
