Impoveing Thread Titles with Details
#14
RE: Impoveing Thread Titles with Details
In defense of the original proposal, I agree that thread titles should be generally clear and descriptive. But on the other hand, as Stimbo pointed out, sometimes a little creative ambiguity can be a bonus, too. I think it is likely to produce a sense of curiosity and maybe even a slight suspense for the readers. Basically, it's alright to me if some thread titles are short and less specific as long as they are not overly vague and don't have any spelling errors. I used to edit thread titles just to correct spelling mistakes (sometimes even to capitalize the first letter at least) when I was a staff, but aside from that I never felt a need to insert anything extra in the titles.
