Since I don't know what the original title was (if you do, please PM me) my only question is...are you telling me that if your title is dopey, dimwitted, irrelevant or simply obtuse it can be changed by a hall monitor on a whim?? Really? If so sounds like someone who's a size 16 might be trying to squeeze into size 4 jeans. Course I say that with love.

I would not want anyone changing anything I wrote on their own without discussing with me first. If the moderator does not have time for that, they should not change anything. If moderators are allowed to change another person's words at will, then Cake should address the issue.  This should not be OK and going forward, if Cake is OK with it, then we should all be for-warned.  I think in this case, the moderator got too trigger happy.
 
We all can mess up at times so I hope everyone will settle down and move on.  In no circumstance, unless it is a TOS violation, would I think it OK for a moderator to change anything in a thread I posted. It's the principle that's a concern here.  We do have the right to post using our own words and I can certainly see a thread getting moved if need be but it should not be acceptable to have our own words changed by someone else in an attempt to make it a better read. Good grief!

I'm very sorry to see you leave, Mike.  I'm hope things can be worked out so you don't feel the need to leave.  
 
I've enjoyed your posts and the craftsmanship that goes into all of your projects.  
 
Take care and Happy Holidays,

Actually, I think you did:
 
"You agree that “Cakewalk Forum” have the right to remove, edit, move or close any topic at any time should we see fit."
 
It takes very little effort to write a meaningful thread title which informs the reader as to the subject matter of the thread.  Generally, I assiduously avoid threads with titles such as "Look at this..!" or "Have you ever considered...", "And another thing...", "This is just wrong!"; the list is endless.  In my honest opinion Karyn acted with the best interests of the forums at heart, such that the modified thread title better informed the forum's readers as to its subject.  Should Karyn have informed spacey that the thread's title had been modified?  Perhaps, but by the same token, spacey should have informed Karyn why he posted a thread with a title which gave no indication as to the subject of the thread.
 
Even the subject of this thread... :-(  Make an effort already, it's not that hard.
 
Really, this is just a storm in a teacup, or maybe a mild swell at most.  This is the internet, to consider that any electronic communication you make, whether by email, on forums or whatever is somehow inviolable, private or even owned by oneself is an fallacy.  It's about as meaningful as pissing into the ocean, it's just not worth mugging yourself over.
