I originally posted the stats for the VSD in the wrong forum, so I moved them, and changed the thread title to Wrong Forum. But then I reused the threads for ships that did belong there. One title changed back to what I wanted it to. But when I edited the other title to say:
NEW REPUBLIC - Viscount Star Defender,
The thread title, as viewed from SotL, still says wrong forum, whereas inside the thread, it says NEW REPUB- like it's supposed to.

I also had this problem when I edited another thread to include the NEW REPUBLIC tag I left off of two of the Mon Calamari cruisers.

Kraken, why don't you give this a whirl again. It may have been because of Freddie importing our posts.

It's still not changing like it should be. I open the edit message, and the title of what it should be is displayed there, but when I clicky save changes, it goes back to displaying wrong forum.

Wrong forum? I don't think I understand what you're talking about, so give me a link and I'll look.

Fixed. The time limit for editing the title of a thread was set to five minutes. Removed now..

Ummm, no, it still isn't fixed. When viewed from Ships oft the Line, it still says Wrong Forum, as the title of the thread, even when I still try to change it.

Changed. Use the 'Thread Tools' drop down menu rather than the 'edit post link'. Otherwise you're just changing the subject of your post, not the title of the thread.

Ok, I gave you moderator powers in those forums, you can move and edit the threads if you mess up again.
