Shambles: No, volunteers may not change thread titles without permission. The thread title is the creative effort of the thread originator, and must not be changed without prior permission from the thread originator.
Joe Offer: Yes, volunteers may change thread titles (sparingly, and according to consistent practices) when changes are needed for clarification and other worthwhile purposes. While your view is valid, the thread can just as easily be viewed as the creative work of the entire community, which would imply that the thread title is meant to serve the entire community and can be changed so that it best serves the community's need to have a thread title that identifies the contents of a thread and distinguishes it from other threads. This is a matter of choice, not absolute truth. In this case, the decision was made to choose a policy which does not meet your specifications.

Whatever the case, it’s a circular argument. It’s a matter of an arbitrary choice, not a choice between right and wrong. It's a choice in which Shambles did not get his way, so he's not satisfied - and never will be. I suppose the only way to end it is to crown Shambles king.

But would he be happy as king????
