**Reproduce:** Create a topic with a period-laden abbreviation at the end of it, e.g.:

> `I like Civilized Discourse Construction Kit, Inc.`

**Expected behavior:** The topic title is rendered exactly as the user entered it (see above).

**Actual behavior:** The period at the end doesn’t persist, e.g.:

> `I like Civilized Discourse Construction Kit, Inc`

_This topic was created with a period at the end, too, but you’ll never know. Period._
