I would like my this thread: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=461858 to be changed from, "A New Era in the Dominion" to "A New Era in the Dominion: Birth of a Billion"

-Thanks in advance.

Changed.

Please don't get in the habit of posting a celebratory thread for every milestone in population. Everyone that hangs out here for six months hits that one, and there are far too many milestone threads posted for anyone to care about. Better to try something interactive with other players.

Um, I am kind of confused. I asked for a thread name change in this thread: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=466151 but the thread was locked and the requested thread (the one to be changed) was never changed.

Anyway, if it was just a mistake, no biggy. Here is the thread I would like changed: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=465724 and I would like it changed to "Part 1: In Search of the Princess"

Thanks

Um, sorry, I am still just kind of curious as to why my request was never answered.

I don't know why your other thread was locked, or why the thread title wasn't changed at the time, but I can speculate.

Sometimes our mod tools (the ones that use the same flaky droplists as the ones you use for searches and subcriptions) simply fail, thanks to that javascript bug with the droplists. If the thread you want changed is on a back page of II, we'd have to spend many minutes manually searching for it to use our backup toolbox, which only works on the "Threads in Forum" pages. It's a pain and an irritant, and I usually don't bother (hoping some other poor sap of a mod will catch it). We're kinda short on dedicated Forum Mods right now, so Game Mods have to catch these requests when we can.

It's been edited.

I have another request for a thread name change and I figured I might as well use my old thread.

Could you please change this thread (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=513333) from "Genetic Military Research [Open Discussion]" to "Genetic Military Research into Cloning [IC Open Discussion]"

Thanks,
~DMG

You took the time to gravedig out a year-old thread for a lousy title change?

Weird.

lol, took five seconds - I just clicked on all threads created by DMG and went to the second page.

What can I say, I just don't like making extra unnecessary threads.
