When starting new threads, please ensure the topic titles are relevant to the thread...

When starting new topics, please take care to post in the appropriate section of the forum and take a moment to look over recent topics for related threads. If there is already a thread relating to the subject, please reply to that one rather than starting a new topic.
Please use a meaningful thread title so that other users will have an idea what it relates to without having to open the thread to find out. Threads with deliberately misleading titles may be locked or deleted by a moderator.
I know this is a pretty silly question, but does this apply to nonsensical threads? I would love serious threads to have self-descriptive titles, but some threads aren't really about anything at all.
Anyway, I hope nobody on the gets their knickers in a twist. I get fed up of clicking on threads with obsure names only to find out it's one I've already clicked on once or twice and not been interested in. If meaningful threads all had related titles it would be so much easier to find our way around.

It *is* a bit wanky to have a thread title of "I hope you ..." and you've got to click on it to read the rest of the sentence.
I regularly get emails with subjects like this - and even worse, they're completely misleading. One was entitled "subject: Last night" and the message actually enquired if I'd done any backups.
Why the hell couldn't it have been entitled "backups?" etc?

Yup, but there's plenty of fun to be had clicking on the threads you *want* to read without having to play a guessing game on the ones with cryptic titles...
