I'm not sure if a mod exists for this (Probably not, but I'm going to ask anyways)...
Is it possible to allow a topic to have more than 1 topic creator? That is, the original first post is made by multiple people. Or, more generally, allow it so multiple people have the same post.
The uses for this I see is for post-editing. Instead of having 1 person be the lone editor of the first post in a topic (Or one of the lone editors, as mods can edit it as well), this could allow multiple users to edit it.
So, is there a mod for this, or not?

Well I suppose it could work whereas multiple people could edit, but probably not all be one TC.

That would probably be pretty useful...
...maybe have some kind of Contributor list?

That could work. But the big question is, can it be done?

The real problem is "who" gets to edit the topic. When it comes down, we have one TC who comes up with an idea, and others can help, but I see no way for a modification to add where a person can select other users by choice.

Never heard of anything like this. If you can find it though I'll install it

Performed a search on "multiple authors" in the phpBB 3.0x mod forums and turned up no results. Considering that such a mod would need to change a pretty important part of the database, I'm not surprised no on has messed around with it yet.

If not multiple authors, perhaps a way to choose certain people to be able to edit a certain post?

If it was a serious, serious, serious post, then there could be a user group that could specifically edit a post?

That's a bit too much. Having millions and millions of usergroups just for posts would be hectic.

All we can do is search, if I think about the coding myself it feels like it'd be tough, you'd have to change the way a lot of permissions work

I believe what they say is this:
You create a topic, and then you can authorize people to edit it at free-will. This way, projects, RPGs or Super Smash Flash 2 things can be done easier.
The problem with this is that this requires some knowledge in phpCoding language, and to tell you the truth, no even cleod or DT seem to know a lot about it.
