MMario says

I again protest the use of the word "routine" - there does not seem to be enough evidence that thread title changes occur as "routine" in any sense of the word.

From my position there is far too much evidence that imposition is undertaken - as a matter of routine - too often on my posts alone.

MMario - will you accept that for a fellow poster to impose any change upon another's contribution (for whatever reason) without their knowledge or permission - on our forum - should be always thought to a major thing. Something not to be done on a regular basis or a matter of routine but as rarely as possible and to handled as fairly and sensitively as can be managed?

Perhaps if this can finally be recognised - a more sensitive approach is needed than just repeating that whichever anonymous volunteers was responisible - was just following Max's guidelines?

Perhaps the sensitive nature of such imposition can be finally recognised (by those who are unlikely to ever be subject to it)? And if always seeking the originator's permission is thought too cumbersome - perhaps to ensure that such action is always seen to have met with Max's approval - any volunteer fellow poster comtemplating such imposition - always obtains Max's approval first?
