How Important? [EDIT] -is the title of a thread to you? -Does it matter to you? Is it a pet peeve? _I noticed some titles that are so unique. Like Imago in the Artist forum. Genesia used a unique title too for her martini frames and Fauxie had a hot topic within an hr with his. -I'm just curious. Cheers. [Edited 8/19/11 12:37pm] | |

50/50. Not all meaty threads have intriguing titles, so it is hard to say.
I do like catchy thread titles, but it's not a prerequisite. I do believe that the author should be taken into consideration, though. | |

-I do hope others will answer too if they like. -I just like how people name their threads. | |

-When I skim down the threads, some people get upset because a certain punctuation wasn't used, like in the concert forum and thelas vegas thread. | |

ALL CAPS TITLED THREADS CATCH THE EYE | |

^- -Yup! _those pop out the most. Then some people use very long titles. Some use initials. So many different styles. | |

if i answered this 100% honestly, i'd get banned. everyone's a fruit & nut case | |

^- -Some titles you already know are gonna be explicit. -NSFW and them. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
They're good to initially catch folk's eye but that can be a double edge sword. If a thread doesn't live up to the title you can always jack it so going in there wasn't a total waste of your time. | |

The thread titles mean nothing to me, it's all about the subject matter specifically, I'll only click if it's something I'm interested in.
As far as other people go, I'm fully aware that people tend to be more likely to click on a thread if they think the title is snazzy or attention-grabbing in some way so I do take that into account when I make a thread.

He's totally right. | |

-I can see that happending. Then also there are those who post a thread and never answer back. Hilarious! | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
-The thread starter is the important thing then and not the title? | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Well, in a way yes. Even if it's a shit title, if the thread maker is popular (in a good or bad way) people still want to check it out. | |

I think it goes something like this:
Bad Reputation: People wanna read it to see the crazy shit they say. Good Reputation: People wanna read it to see the crazy/funny shit they say. No Reputation: People may or may not read, depending on the title. | |

if you want attention, just put the word photowhore in the title. everyone's a fruit & nut case | |

-The content in the threads can be amazing in many ways. -I just can't help but to notice the styles used to name threads when i scroll down the message boards. -People do become popular in their threads, some within mins sometimes! -I like to lurk around and see all the action in the threads. -I wonder what is the record for the MOST replies in a thread? A thousand? | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
not at all. I generally skim the titles and just open ones that look interesting or funny in new tabs. I also open ALL threads that are started by certain orgers like myfavorite and number23. they're always gold.
sometimes I get peeved when the title doesn't match the thread at all. I opened it cause that's what I thought it was about! Damn tricksters. | |

Very true.
e.g.
'PHOTOWHORE, but in words, the best date you've ever been on' MY COUSIN WORKS IN A PHARMACY AND SHE SAID THEY ENEMA'D PRANCE INTO OBLIVION WITH FENTONILS!! | |

-I also noticed too how some orgers get all upset when the thread starter won't edit the title. -They do 15 replies or more on just bickering about it. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
It doesnt really matter to me.
Most of the time i just check for typos. | |

^- -Yup! I just scrolled down and saw Militant has over 1,500 replies on his ITS PHOTO TIIIME thread! Is that a record?! | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
-That is the tricky part because people get all excited sometimes typing and typo. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
What's even better is that a thread titled 'PHOTOHO YOURSELF LOOKING AT YOUR MOST JANKITY AND UGLY AS FUCK' would turn out almost identically in terms of both photographic content and reply count. MY COUSIN WORKS IN A PHARMACY AND SHE SAID THEY ENEMA'D PRANCE INTO OBLIVION WITH FENTONILS!! | |
