Forum: Possible to create thread writable by me only?

Is it possible to create a thread which only me can write to? (not being a moderator)
Like Announcement vs. Discussion thread.

Not with your current usergroup.. ;)

What exactly were you hoping to do?

That came to my mind when seeing that the posts in my "Extended Menu" thread are constantly increasing...
So I thought to have the questions/comments separate from my "announcements"/updates would be more "userfriendly".
But maybe I am thinking too much :-)

I see what you are trying to do... :)

It is possible, but a special forum would have to be created just for this though... the other thing you could do, is become a moderator of the forum that 'your' thread is in, lock thread.. and only you will be able to reply ;)

Just a separate forum for my addon... and not for other addons as well may not be appropriate... even though I think it rocks it may not be that special ;-)
(Being a forum moderator would probably lead to wrong expectation... being a "Hero" is already enough weight to carry;)

I just thought to check whether there is an easy way (like you creating such thread while I'd still be able to post)...
But if there is once a forum per addon let me know. - that may actually be a nice idea I think.

I wonder how many that would be, almost 700 projects on the Forge now, plus those who are not..? :)

Ok, I did not mean there has to be a thread just because the project exist... but then it would probably not be such a big problem if it is kind of automated I think... maybe something connected to the forge (but without having to register separately and better than the one on the good ol' mamboforge).
