Default 10-9-06: Now users can get edit rights to "special" posts in the server forums!

Thanks to our member Ody, users can now start special threads on this site, and especially in the server sections, and send me or Calthine a request for those posts to be stickied. After that, we will give you edit rights to your post, and you can update it whenever you want with any changes you want.

The purpose of providing edit rights to a single post is so users can create their own content and update it whenever they want. The first example of this type of changing, updated content is a thread in the Najena forum where the thread owner, Petspawn, can now update a list of what master spells are needed by whom on Najena.

There are many other applications involving lists that need to change when information changes. If you want to start and maintain such a list, please go ahead and start your post in the appropriate forum, then send me or Calthine a PM asking us to sticky that post and give you edit rights to it. Posts like that will be for information purposes, and not for flaming, but every other type of post on this forum can still be used for flaming or whatever.

Big kudos go to Ody for doing this, I was told by other tech people it wasn't possible.

By the way, this site now has the technical support staff and capabilities of a major, high traffic Internet board, and I think that's pretty amazing. We certainly now have more customizations, features, and capabilities than most. Thanks to everyone for the support and for using this site.
