OT: If your not going to put "OT" in your title, have the title discribe the your subject Options

[URY914]

We pretty much all (OK, not all, but most) agreed that putting "OT" in an off topic thread would help everyone out and is a good thing.

So not everyone is doing this, which is OK because not everyone can follow rules, or has read the new rules. Or maybe they forget to add in "OT" and then after posting they realize it but can't go back and change it. I'm sure it will take some time for the tide to change.

But here is another simple piece of advice that I think may help to make things a little more user friendly....

How about when you fill in the Topic Tile and Topic Description before you write your actual post, you actually discribe in some way what the hell the subject is.
That way even though you've not put in OT, we will all know by the title and discritpion that it is "OT".

I know what your thinking, "There goes URY914, that asshole trying change the board again like he knows what I want and knows what is good for the board."

This board gives you ample room (more that other BBSs that I belong to) to discribe your topic, so use it. Is that too much to ask?

This is not a rant, this is not a order, this is not a new rule, I am not trying to change the way you live your life. This is only a seggustion to make things a little easier to use.

QUOTE (URY914 @ Sep 30 2005, 09:40 AM) Since I labled this as "OT" those that don't have the new box checked won't see it. i see no new box. i didn't check anything. i saw your new post just fine. but i agree completely. you've gotta put *something* in the title line; it should be meaningful. and guys that want specific technical advice - PLEASE include AT LEAST your year and model (engine size) in your post. if you've got that in your SIG, ok. DO NOT expect us to remember everything you wrote about it in another thread the other day; we may not have read that other thread, and it's a bit presumptuous to think that your problem is so special that the thousands of members here will remember who has what.

go to the garage page and look in the green line just above the nailed topics?
