Clearer thread titles
 

:twisted: Hi folks.
This is a request from the staff for a little more Clarity (at least when it comes to on topic areas of the forum) when it comes to thread titles.

There have been several threads that have been given misleading names, for instance "New Tour DVD" gives the impression that the thread gives info on a new DVD when the thread merely asks if there will be a DVD.
Likewise "UK Tour dates" should indicate released info, not a request for information."Have any UK dates been confirmed?" is a lot clearer.

The blue ribbon has got to go to Wario with his "Meat Loaf Dead Report" which was asking for copies of the original reports from the 70's in Australia, but gave the impression that Meat had died.
Chris, you are a gimp :nuts:

It's not a rule we will be enforcing harshly, we would just like everybody to consider if the thread title they are posting is misleading.

We the staff however will retain to change the name of a thread without prior notice if we feel the title misleads.
Cheers :up:

:twisted: And for the record, I was tempted to call this thread "wooble" just for the irony factor :p

Very good point, that "UK TOUR DATES 2010/2011" is giving me a heart condition.

:twisted: THread title slightly changed to reflect subject :up:

lol you spelled Dead wrong in your first post

lmao I have a new Quote of the Day!

Well done Wario, you're daed write :-)

Of course Neil will claim he did it deliberately to mock you're general standard of spelling, but we all know that nobody hear does that ... :mrgreen:

:twisted: You're still a gimp :p

and You're still a Photoshop

Yeah that's a good idea, I've been fooled a few times myself by some post titles and got excited and then on going there to read it realised it was a question, not stating a fact. Like the Meat in Australia, while I knew it was impossible since he is in the middle of a tour right now, it still made my heart skip a beat when I saw it.
