"Thread Locked. Not Open for further comments."
... would be a nicer, but still informative, way than the current:

You have insufficient privileges to reply here.

Which comes across more as "Shut up plebe! You have nothing to say here!"
(Even though they latter may be true!)

EDIT: OK, I'll go with @DrClaude (below) with "Closed" rather than "Locked."

I would even use "closed" instead of "locked."

Just stock software phrasing. We can soften, but not a high priority.

Are you prioritizing by value, or by the value:effort ratio? That's a question, not an argument, especially because I'm not the one who'll have to do the work... But it's easy for engineering types to underestimate the ROI on improving notifications.

Almost always this :smile: This is easy to change, but I also have 100 easy changes on my list and all the work done with PF5 this past 30 days has left me really behind in real life work obligations 😵😬😀
