I don’t know whether to report this as a bug, or as an accidental C-R breach I guess it’s both.
1316-7 Holly Brown dropped a note in RFS . The title of the note was “Alina Huff and Jessica Burden attack me at Reniov Forest South”, I later edited a copy (possibly the master-copy. How to tell which is which?) of the same note, and altered the title accordingly , to include the current date- 1321. Checking back the history on the character page, I was stunned to realise that the note which was left in RFS now has the new title, according to the record. It contains fresh information which could not possibly have reached RFS, and certainly could not have been dropped there by Holly.
I felt I really ought t report this, as not only does this create an inconsistency, but I c n seee much potential for deliberate abuse of of this bug

Something similar to this, when someone gives you a note then if you edit the name, it changes in the events as well. Because of this, the person who gave you the note could technically be sent short messages by altering the title. Imagine if you travel to the next town and get locked away by bandits, you could change the title into HELP bandits in X, or something like that, and if the other person would happen to check their events - well, you see the problem.

This is not a bug nor a potential C-R breach (apart from a means to communicate to your own character over time) I've PM'd you with fuller details as to what occured, but essentially the Note was dropped but then picked up by the same character before the changes took place
It is only that characters events page which (correctly) show any reference to the note title.
