Changing subject lines

I've used the script that 'jumpstarted' this board for a few bulletin boards, and, at least in its original form, it's really not easy to make those changes. It involves manually changing every page that refers to the post by its subject line, for one thing, as well as changing the subject line on the post itself.

Deleting the posts isn't a lot easier, for that matter: you'd have to edit all those same pages that refer to those subject lines, for one thing, and then make another page to stand in for the offensive post, too. (Otherwise, the threading gets wonky.)

On the other hand, it shouldn't be all that difficult to archive the Social board to hide the subject lines...
