The purpose of a thread title is to help people decide whether or not they are interested in the thread. Some people, rather than using the title to give a good indication of what the thread is about, seem to be using them as "teases" to get people to open the thread. This is a waste of people's time AND server resources.

"Joe Blow says.." -- useless thread title.

"Joe Blow says Ivan will landfall at Pensacola" -- useful thread title.

Thank you for listening. :) --c
