Updating the query, once solved
date
newest »

I actually find it annoying when the original thread header is updated to just the author and title. Wouldn't google find that information if it were just in the body of the thread, as opposed to also in the header?
I spend a lot of time looking at headers and they tend to stick in my brain. So when they change, it messes with my memory of being familiar with that particular thread.
I agree with putting SOLVED at the beginning of every solved thread, and I do this myself when updating as a mod. It makes searches within the group much more helpful.

Me, too. I often don't recognize the thread. I think of it by the original header.

Solved in the title helps (and I totally want that requested/done as well) when you're looking thru a ton of search results, but if the details are in the first part of the query, you won't even have to click thru to see it.
eg:

SOLVED: _Maiden Flight_ by Eric Vinicoff
After the bombs went off, men took Fuller's Could Nine concept and built floating cities in huge solar-heated balloons. They're all independent and lovey-dovey utopias... except they keep losing cities every once in awhile.
One of the people comes to the conclusion that this is happening too often, and too regularly to be accidental - and starts looking for the cause. And nobody in authority wants to listen to him/her.
