What should a clutch thread look like?

[kc261]

I think a better solution would be to have a sub-forum where the OP can edit his posts. That way he can reserve 5 posts or so (not sure what the limit is on post length around here) and just edit them as needed to make updates. Then people can still reply in the same thread, and all the clutch related info will still be right at the beginning.

THAT is a great idea. I've seen other forums where this sort of things is done, reserving the first several posts for information that will come later, and it works really well.
