Yes this is a joke. . . .

I have looked at a number of posts today that make my head hurt just trying to read them. . . .

Is there a way to have the website recommend fixes to posts before they go live?

And search help?

And search help?

Search function sucks because we have no title rules. We should have some rules about title contents that reflect the actual topic in the thread.

No flaming about using the term "help" in the thread title?

 

[FMJ]

I always use the term "help" when searching for specific information. . . . .

It should be titled "A Rant about the rise in use of improper English and Grammar in the Steel Soldiers Forum"

I thought "HELP!!!" would get more attention. . . .

You are probably right, I was expecting to open a thread about your truck being stuck or broke down somewhere.

I just lost a couple minutes of my life that I will never get back. Now I am disappointed and a little cranky. Thanks.

I am all ears for a means of correcting that without human intervention. But it simply will not happen.

Even if it did happen. It'd be a constant cleanup/battle.

I've got a huge flashing yellow banner about DO NOT POST AUCTION DETAILS. You'd think that people would notice it. But alas they only notice it when they get in trouble.

I apologize to all I have deprived of life, by the way, was that the first post or the entire thread?

 

[Danger Ranger]

Both. But there I go again lol.

Actually since I was made a moderator my favorite (not really) correction is to change title threads, usually by correcting typos for members that do no capitalize or spell properly.

And...unless it is an emergency I don't like help in a thread title.

There is this new technology called "Spell Check" , but if they cannot spell, they probably do not know how to set it up..........
