Flyertalk is about the free exchange of information. As our community standards require that you can't post an event on FT unless all active members are invited, then I can't even imagine being allowed to post a thread and telling people they can't see or post.

Having to be invited to post on a thread is cliquish and anti community.
Good point.

How about getting rid of the invitiation to view/post idea but still being able to assign limited editing powers to a designated member? That way, some of the "Consolidated..." threads can be maintained by a new volunteer (who isn't a moderator) if/when the old thread maintainer retires from maintaining it or leaves FlyerTalk. That's the part I was focused on, anyway.
