Wow, the support team sure is in the wind of late 😆

I totally agree there's more we could do for authors here, unrelated to the current topic (the current topic is primarily about all users), but I have been brainstorming some thoughts around authors, and mentioned them in slack discussions, they've just not been given their own post like this as of yet.

But I would like to open up to allow authors a bit more control of their own day to day, the ability to close their own topics (not other users topics, because unfortunately that would be abused), reply to old reviews (users can update their review at any time, but nobody can reply to them if they were originally written more than a year ago, I view this as a bug my self), and I'm very open to hearing other thoughts and ideas around this.

Authors already have the ability to pin their own topics at least, so the underlying system is in place to allow for these things.\
