Auto-assign thread prefix when posting a new thread

[James Birkett]

Evening all,

I was wondering if there's a method of automatically assigning a thread prefix to a new thread when it is submitted. I don't want the user to select a prefix, I want a default one to be assigned.

Reason:
I'm creating a forum with 3 prefixes. Accepted, Rejected and Pending.
I want "Pending" to be appended onto any thread that is submitted in that forum so I can sort through the pending/accepted/rejected by sorting the prefixes.

I am guessing it would be possible on the newthread_complete hook; however any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
