I really think that thread titles should be longer because when they are so short it just makes more people waste their time clicking on it and everyone gets their pantys in a wad over it. If you’re not gonna have a complete thread title don’t even bother

I want to hate this but it is super annoying when people post stupid click sit titles. Worst are things like "AC9..."

Nice jab at BobbyMyers. He keeps on baiting me to read his threads! I could get upset and write nasty stuff back but there are more important things in life. Like Mr Dungey said, " it's just Moto " or something. Bobby you're cool. 

 

But I hear the point, it takes away from finding the treads one might be interested in. 

I have an idea, instead of up votes and down votes, if we could rate a vitard account instead... and based on interaction/ score , reputable vitards come on top while the ones we despise show up last. The ranking would be specific to each user. Kinda like social media algorithms recommend you stuff based on your likes.

Might be a bit much to ask, but that would be cool.

Exactly how much does it inconvenience someone to open a thread only to find they’re not interested in it, so close it down and open another?

It only inconveniences one person to create a proper thread title. It inconveniences potentially thousands or tens of thousands that click on stupid clickbait threads.

So what is the inconvenience?

15 seconds?

Remembering that you’re on a ‘hobby’ forum, not working.

Is it really an inconvenience?? No. Is it even a thing?? No. Have you spent more time complaining about it by means of this thread than you’d ever lose being inconvenienced by short thread titles?? Most definitely.

I would like to be able to scroll over the title with your mouse pointer and see part of the body of the post, this helps avoid opening up topics that are clickbait or that your not interested in. I been asking for this for years on here.

 

Example:

I didn’t complain. Simply pointing out a rational thought process.

I would have been more likely to open this thread if the title was: "I really think................."

I already answered in your other thread that you need longer thread titles. Now I scroll down and see this and I feel like an idiot. Sorry man, I should have had faith in you.

I agree. And its how I try and post so its not clickbait like. But People do not like to read words that they themselves have not written on here. So I'm sure you will get many downvotes and hate.
