Postponing forum maintenance until Saturday then.

Since the only way to test this (for us folks who can't remove threads) is to create a lot of test threads, I'll try to suggest a few ideas, which perhaps you or one of the other mods can try out:
- is it possible to create a blank thread ?
- is it possible to create a thread which only contains blank characters (e.g., spaces/tabs) in its body and/or title ?

As for the lack of author of the thread, well, can a mod change that ?
You may also want to consider if this can possibly be related to the other bugs linked to admin posts, of which there are at least two that I am aware of:
- sometimes the thread appears as having been created by an admin (I am aware that if the admin renames the thread, the creator changes; I am referring to cases where the admin did not change the thread title). This may or may not have been fixed by Ser Clegane.

- threads in which an admin posted (sometimes when this is the last post in the thread, but not necessarily always) keep appearing as "thread with new posts in it", even though there are no new posts in it. I assume this is a well-known "feature" by now.

Ok, sorry if I only wasted your time more rather than giving any useful suggestions. Hope that maybe _something_ was not completely useless.

Very odd indeed

It still happens from time to time - and I do not exactly know yet how it is triggered (I thought it happens as soon as edit a post - but apparently it does not always happen when I do that)
