I was just wondering why the "I feel evil" topic in the lounge was near the top, when it had been closed for a while. I looked at the last page, and the final reply was "Posted - 24 February 2002 3:18:33 PM". Yet, it is still visible as one of the top topics in the lounge, apparantly with the last post at "February 25, 2002 2:27:15 PM". I''m aware that editing a post changes the last-post date, but since this thread is closed, it isn''t edit-able. So, is the system screwed, or me?

Closed threads aren''t editable by anyone who doesn''t have moderator or staff status. And staff can edit posts without an "Edited by" message showing up.
