Yeah, I meant previous to this rule being implemented, I did see one guy make a comment about it in a thread. It otherwise appears to have come out of the blue. Of course, people may have been contacting the staff privately about it... although I have a hard time imagining anyone getting really worked up about this issue.
If there was more of a public fuss, I totally missed it.

We're not saying that people can't be creative about thread subjects, as long as the subject accurately describes what the thread is about.

Is "Thanks for the click bait" a complaint? If yes, I'm guilty. And probably will remain so.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

That's very personal, and the ignore function covers it fine. If doesn't hurt anyone, or impact any other topics. It doesn't inhibit discussion.
It can't be a case of not liking the content, since the content isn't in question. Only the description.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Also it's now a bannable offence not to kudos every post I make.

Bit they cost so much and quite frankly I'm not sure you're worth it.
