I have noticed that a lot of threads get highjacked with BS talk or abuse.
I think the creator of a thread should have the power to delete unwanted comments on his own thread or maybe even delete the thread itself once it is no longer required or rendered useless.
just a thought.

creator moderated threads is not a good idea IMO. What about if someone were to start a thread and then go nuts moderating it etc?
if you have a problem, use the "REPORT TO MODERATOR" feature listed under every single post on these forums. That feature is there for the exact purpose you want
look about two lines down from HERE, and to the RIGHT....

We really want to try and keep a reasonably even level of moderation, this doesn't happen when the creator of every thread is the moderator of that thread.
We try to be as non-invasive as possible in general with our moderating, of course there are times when "it hits the fan" and things don't go so well. We have no way of controlling the moderation of the threads if we do this and people could do anything they want with the contribution of other members to the forum.
I know I check the reported messages at least 10 times a day. There is also commonly 10 plus threads or messages reported a day. This is the method to use for any posts or threads that offend you or for some other reason you want to bring to the attention of the moderators.

there is always the odd case which cannot be fixed immediately, but on the whole i think we do a good job - especially josh - at clearing up the crap.
Short answer - never going to happen.

Why shouldnt it be for the forum junkies who have post atleast 500 post which seems fare. They wouldnt post 500 post unless they where a true toymod supporter. Just a thought
