mawby Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 I've noticed an increase in the number of useless thread titles being used. Things like "Lefty", "Urgent Help" and "What about" give people no clue as to what the thread is about and really annoys the tits of me! I've been changing them myself recently but I'm changing tactics now. If you create a thread with a useless* title then don't be surprised if it just gets deleted - you have been warned! And on that bombshell, good night. *useless is defined as any title that does not, in the opinion of myself or another moderator, accurately describe the contents of the thread. Our decision will be final and will always be right, even when wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 (edited) Spot on, it's been a long time coming.

stevie_b Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I've noticed an increase in the number of useless thread titles being used. Things like "Lefty", "Urgent Help" and "What about" give people no clue as to what the thread is about and really annoys the tits of me! Hear, hear. What's the point of a thread title if it says "Help needed", (or more likely, "help needed!!!11!!!!!")? Help with your maths homework? Help getting dressed in the mornings?

caseys Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Just wanted to ask about this as I just posted up a joke thread in off-topic and well... I didn't want to give the joke away describing it in detail in the thread. Can threads regarding jokes be a little ambiguous (to not give it away or bore the reader to death)? I can understand the classifieds/supra chat/members chat/technical all being titled more specifically, but would have thought Off-topic could be a little less... ruled with an iron fist?

mawby Posted November 13, 2009 Author Share Posted November 13, 2009 Threads which have the Joke prefix used can be excluded. We will be more relaxed about Off Topic threads than threads in other sections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexsum Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 to be fair, this is a pretty useless thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 it has a good descriptive title though. There's no accounting for the content of a thread when we let just anybody post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
