EnFoRcEr_uPu Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 I've seen more and more of these topics as of late. They start to say the topic then end in "..." to get people to jump in and read the topic. Things like "We should draft..." or "What happens if...". The point of topics is to give the reader a general idea of the topic they will be reading about, and then they can decide whether or not they want to read it. I just can't see the point of posting these lead-on topic titles that I've been seeing all too often and making people guess at their point. Can we enforce some kind of a rule that people should ATLEAST post relevant and meaningful topic titles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I hope the Swarm helps us by calling such things to our attention so we can rapidly identify them and help. Using the report a post function would be a perfect way to quickly get our attention in such things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Can we enforce some kind of a rule that people should ATLEAST post relevant and meaningful topic titles? You mean something like this? 8. Please use descriptive and accurate subject titles for your posts. Adherence to this rule assists visitors in utilizing discretion when selecting content to read. It also serves to notify members if a particular topic has already been posted and discussed, and potentially prevents multiple threads being started on the same topic. Be respectful of the fact that some people come to ExtremeSkins explicitly for latest Redskins news and content, provided without the editorializing of titles by members. Use the Report A Post feature. It'll get handled alot faster if you guys bring it to our attention that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
