Browsing around, is anyone else frustrated when they see "How do I. . ." or "Not sure what to do" as a thread title? It frustrates me. Pet peeve.

I was tempted to title this "major frustration," or something, but I really can't bring myself to:).

I agree that it can be annoying sometimes and somewhat of a pet peeve of mine as well.

However, when you consider that many of the users have never dealt with a forum before, it could be a lot worse. :D

It would help when searching the forum if subject matched content to.

Oh c'mon...it gives you something to do. You now...when you do a search and 100 theads come up with titles 'problem' or 'help'...and you have to look through them all just to find what you want :D

As jj said...it could be worse and most are somewhat related to the subject.

I'll count my blessings. It just amuses me.

Besides, I thought that at 50 posts you get an avatar, and at 125 you get to gripe.

You don't get to gripe until after 3000 posts like jj :D

I'm still waiting for my day to come...

You don't see it much anymore, but my most hated subject line for a while there was "my email has been hijacked" :rolleyes:

You get to put up with stupid people like me! -that's what the iggy button, filters, and hmmm, what else can block various ways of communication.
