You know the kind : "Firaxis READ THIS" , "FIRAXIS READ!!!", "Firaxis I am ANGRY" and so on without any indication of what the topic is.
Am I the only who finds these thread titles intensely annoying and rude? All of us would love to have Firaxis read about and respond to our pet peeves. But those of us who write descriptive thread titles figure that we should let Firaxians choose whether they want to read our threads. We let the thread title do what it's meant to do ie. explain what the thread is about without crying out for attention.
Those who write thread-titles like the ones above seem to be trying to trick Firaxis into paying them more attention , though I've not seen any evidence it works anyway. In fact if I were a Firaxian I would purposely avoid threads with uninformative titles like that.
What do you think?

I don't know if Firaxis avoids them but I tend to.

OK Korn,
Your title was quite clever and therefore not quite in the category I was going on about. But you must have seen the kind of titles I am referring to and you have to admit they are usually annoying as hell.
