However, if you have a self-moderated topic, you can move it to Meta board and it will lost the self-moderated option. It is the one-way process, and you can got turn it on again even if you move your topic back to Beginners & Help, ie.[/li][/list]
Huh, that's interesting. I wasn't aware of that, but I guess it makes sense.
This is one of those things that should probably be made a new feature on the forum, the ability to switch back and forth between moderated/unmoderated threads. It would probably piss a lot of people off if members started switching normal threads to self-moderated ones and deleted all the posts, but I don't know how many times I've meant to create a self-modded thread and forgot to. It really would be nice to be able to switch, even if there were a time limit for a member to do so, e.g., you can't change a thread to self-moderated more than a day after it was started or whatever.
Don't know how much additional coding would have to go into a change like that, but if it's easy enough to do....why not do it?
