Hello @physixfan

Thanks your suggestion! This is indeed a useful feature request. I have merged the PR that adds this functionality:

> <https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/27934>
>
> Previously, we did not log any topic slow mode changes. This allowed some malici…ous (or just careless) TL4 users to delete slow modes created by moderators at will. Administrators could not see who changed the slow mode unless they had SQL knowledge and used Data Explorer.
> 
> This commit enables logging who turns slow mode on, off, or changes it.

You can now see who has modified slow mode in the admin logs panel:
