suggestion for titling technical threads
I like clever titles for threads as much as the next guy, but "Hey look at this" isn't as informative as "A new easy way to rejet, etc."
Using a clear and to the point title, especially for technical posts, will aid in both scanning through current posts to look for a subject and also for searching though older posts for a topic that has already been covered (most have...). You can do a search for post titles only, and if the titles themselves had the subject matter in them, say "rejet" instead of "I finally figured this out" etc it will make searching a lot easier.
Oh, and again, before starting a new thread on a generic tech question I recommend doing a search. After all, how many oil/rejet/battery/octane/chain lube/etc posts can we really read without wanting to poke our eyes out?
Thanks Fellas!
