What Happened to the Forum Topic Titles?

But in that case, I wonder if a title is even needed for responses to first posts? Or is this just an artifact of the underlying software?

Mine doesn't do that. It's always dimmed. It's that way with Firefox and IE/Netcaptor. You might try clearing your browser cache to see if that changes things.
