I tried to add to a topic under the FAQ section, and got message saying that I didn't have permission.

First, why?

Second, how can I tell by looking at the topic, so I don't waste time typing?

Thanks . . .

Dave--

It has always been thus.  

Can you think of a FAQ section anywhere that is interactive?  We don't want a W(ikipedia) In Progress .... DO we?  Nor do I want to be in a position where I have to delete some addition for whatever reason and then explain why it was deleted (like "it was inaccurate").

As for knowing in advance that a forum/subject is read only, so it is written; so it is done.

What did you want to add to the FAQ?  Send it to me (via PM).

Fair enough, about Wiki, etc.

However, it wasn't at all clear from a review of the icons that any topic is "read only".  The icon off to the left (the little envelope) appears to only say that it's an open topic with no new replies  -- not no new replies allowed.

Anyway, I understand.  I wanted to be sure I wasn't persona non grata for any reason.
