    Moderators: Per @AzusaPrius' request, please move all posts including and after #67 in this thread into this thread. I know this is a big ask, due to the number of comments. However, I want to respect @AzusaPrius' wishes by not hijacking his thread.

    if a comment from the peanut gallery may be entertained:

    I am not sure I usually think of threads on PriusChat as having owners. They have topics, and they have their original posters, who are the bows from which the threads as living arrows are sent forth. I've sometimes made efforts to resist topic drift and keep a thread on something like its original topic, but I don't usually think of one as "mudder's thread" or "Azusa's thread". As long as a thread has an ongoing discussion that's on-topic, it seems cool to me.

    Which I guess is to say I'm lukewarm on this proposed split. I won't feel bad if it happens, but I also wouldn't feel bad if the original thread stayed intact. Its topic was testing the Soother product, and mudder's contributions have certainly been on that topic. If split into two threads, there should certainly be prominent posts linking the two together, so a reader who finds one won't miss the relevant information in the other.

    I’ve been on forums where the o/p has total control of the thread.
    It’s an interesting concept

    I agree completely, which is why I initially posted in "Azusa's" existing thread. My creating this thread is only at Azusa's request. I'm onboard if moderators and/or community standards decide to keep everything in the existing thread.

    I agree.

    Can’t wait to see the pouncing continue on this thread. Let me make some pop corn and bring a big bowl for us.

    I agree with @ChapmanF and think it makes more cohesive to have it back on the original post/thread.

    Looks like PriusChat doesn't allow me to edit posts after a certain time period. Therefore, I cannot edit my first post in this thread. Instead, I will post an addendum to that post next:

    Moderators: Per the above community feedback, I no longer wish for my posts in the linked thread to be moved here. It appears the community agrees my posts in that thread are on-topic and relevant to OP's original post. No action is requested at this time.

    However, I do want to keep this thread open, so that I can continue discussing Signal Soother concepts that may actually be off-topic in OP's thread.
