Another suggestion would be to add a little "title edited by: MOD_USERNAME" tag to any edited titles so we could at least keep track of the moderators who are doing it incorrectly.
As it stands, I have no idea if pg himself edited the title or if it was some random user who recently acquired the correct amount of karma.

- GigabyteCoin 13y agoCertain permissions are, like when you get over 500 karma for example as you should soon: you will notice a downvote option beside comments that are not a directly reply to your own.
- pyre 13y agoIf it's based on a karma threshold, I haven't reached it yet, which would mean that the bar is fairly high.
- jafaku 13y agoIf you want karma all you have to do is submit a lot of garbage, just keep it coming. Most of your submissions will get 0 votes, a few will get you 10 or 20 votes, and one or two will get you 300-400. That's how downvoters get their downvoting powers. Another option is to submit quality comments for a decade without being banned for saying something against Ruby or whatever the mods are emotionally or economically attached to at the time. Then you may be able to downvote.

- stephencanon 13y ago> created: 741 days ago That’s one short decade!
- pyre 13y agoNo one has said that HN karma is worth anything. I was just providing anecdotal evidence on whether or not there is a karma threshold for moderator status. Also, | for a decade HN hasn't been around for a decade.

- jwr 13y agoWhat difference does it make whether pg did it or someone else did? The change was not a good idea.
