Browsing a long thread - you sometimes forget who was the original topic starter - especially if you return to the topic days after last time you read it and jump into the discussion… Therefore I request a solution that let you easily see who was the original Thread starter or topic starter… Eg a icon or something that visualize who did original start this topic… ![imageedit_2_2582822926](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/8/a/8a88115d1b27282ee5a7cb10a6e0ada54451bc4a.jpg) Update saw this: [Make posts in a topic by topic starter recognizable](https://meta.discourse.org/t/make-posts-in-a-topic-by-topic-starter-recognizable/42324) --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/request-topic-starter-icon/92870)._
