use the Title Line when you post

[Danielle H]

The only thing I can see wrong with using the title line, is people like me.


If I'm reading a thread, and I have a reply, most of the time my thoughts move faster than my hands, and I just end up clicking the "Quick Reply" button which, unfortunately, doesn't give you a title line.

So, I guess the search thread option would be the best... and I can't believe I've never used it before.

Never done this before, but this sounds really good.

Will start doing so from now. Thanks for the idea.

BTW, those who might know what to write in their reply topic, they should write their reply text first, and then write the title according to what you've written.

Just for those it might not have been obvious (not that I underestimate people).

I don't see this being as helpful as expected.

Good idea but i don't see it really helping enough for everyone to do it?

could just be my opinion

Ken,
Thank you for starting this thread. The thread you referred to isn't the first one where I've seen a new poster 'get the business'. I'm glad folks are thinking of ways to help this situation.

Two things:

If everyone keeps their sense of humor intact and available - it will go a long way towards warding off criticism while new members learn to navigate CD.

If your humor fails you, push back your chair and go outside. If it's too cold, go look out a window. Then come back and try the humor again. It's called 'refresh'.

Or, when you search to see if your question has already been answered, use the advanced search and have the results shown by post rather than by thread. Pretty much stamps out any possibility of you being a 'repeat' offender.

Instead of clicking on "post reply" I always use the quick reply box, and it doesn't ask me the title. It by default posts ReTitle of Thread).
