When you open up an old thread, the quick reply box at the bottom, as well as the full reply screen, have this red text above it:

This is... not the kind of forum that benefits from that advice, to say the least. So maybe it shouldn't be there.
Thank you for calling that out, I noticed that on the sandbox instance. That's weird to have as a default imo! I'll see how to get it removed.
it was a setting in the Topics page of the admin panel. lol lmao etc
Gotta love surprise default-on settings!!!
