I think you will find that the Admin Team are as bad as the rest when it comes to enigmatic thread titles! In fact I believe one of those was started by a moderator. :lol:

I have always done it – gets people looking!

However, point noted and thank you.

Disagree. Is it really that difficult to click on the thread and see what its about?

Many of the less descriptive thread titles are quite amusing and apt for the content once you look at the thread.

It's not as if there is new thread overload on a daily basis!

Like you nordwulf I couldn't resist opening up the 'It seems with this brand..' thread.

I only did because I was intrigued by the title.

I would have missed it otherwise.

I like a bit of mystery; gets me reading.

Life would be boring if all thread titles were 'Watch . . .'

I recall one thread title that was factual, did start "Watch....", but also amusing and got a lot of interest

Good recall.

I had forgotten that one.

Hopefully Bananarama (missF, christam and asqwerth) aren't about at the moment while we're digging up boy stuff.

Bugger!

In my defence I meant to say the gorgeous Bananarama.
