| OK. When the board was at overclocked, the SMW Hacknig forum had a problem with titles that were either misleading or just blind. Misleading EX: New Art!!! Thread contains: Anybody have any? Blind EX: Question... Thread contains: How old are you? Lets just say this, the name of the thread should be a clear clue as to what is in the thread, not jus meaningless so that people have to open it to see what it is. It's really said that I have already noticed this and it hasn't even been up that long. Just thought I would make a "User Announcement" (That would have been a misleading thread title) |

| I agree..... too often in the craziness domain... people aren't clear about what a thread is about.... I don't want to waste my time having to read a thread to find out what it is about... I'd much rather see a title and know whether it's interesting from that... I have to admit though.... that titles that are the thread itself.... are annoying too you know, the ones where the question is in the title.... those are stupid too :p |

Thread titles like "Help !!!!!!1111oneoneon" in computer (sub)forums cannot help at all. The object needs to be mentioned clearly; as for me I rather keep longer titles but explanatory ones (doubt the fact I rarely started threads - it were about 40 before the board crash  )  Usually clear thread titles have to be expected from anyone who creates them. |

| I remember one guy doing the 'help' thing in HW/SW and never actually mentioning his problem until like the fourth page. |

| It's a good idea, but they probably wont. Everybody knows not to spam, and I guess that would be spamming | |||

| Great example of this: I was in another DBZ board, and this guy's topic was "Please Help Me!" In the post, it said: "Why can't I go Super Sayian? I've trained for a long time and I can't do it." Hilarity ensues.  |

| Stickying this thread might not prevent people from posting dumb thread titles, as First, some people don't read stickied threads as all, Sedond, are too lazy to try out Google, like on game-specific questions which can be solved far better looking in the proper FAQ/walkthrough, Third, proper thread titles should go without saying Including it into the forum rules, finding them in /FAQ.php into the DOs and DONT's, would fit better than that (edited by Gandalf The Grey on 03-19-04 04:23 PM) |

| I like what they have at Tek Hacks. They have a thread title, and under it, a thread description. It looks rather nice as well and it would definitely be more informative. | |||

Originally posted by Legion Agreed. I like the descriptions, make the thread title, and then describe what it's about. Wouldn't look bad if it was used here. I also hate thread titles like What's your favorite... Have you seen this... Can you guess what this is? Where do you...

Originally posted by Legion You mean subtitles ? Yeah, that could be pretty neat Just think to a thread in ROM Hacking for example: "Some weird problems with No$GB" Subtitle in smaller font below - "Some right parameters don't work "Edit: Weird, the last two posts from me just were made at the exact same time with Legion and Xeogread  (edited by Gandalf The Grey on 03-19-04 04:27 PM) |
