Well done to Steve :)

[jrh2002]

Steve? I would like to know who steve is as well :o I think a rule should be made that you use their forum names in titles of threads so the 99% of the ppl here who are not on first name terms with everybody have some clue what your posting about. just habbo name or first name in brackets would help and would also help if they say why they are getting a well done. This has bugged me for a while so thought I would post.

This is not directed at anybody because its very common so no crying please.

I think its a good point that people won't know who its about but, probably better to put in the title their forum name and then in the post you can put their first name if you want?

Well it's fairly obvious the thread creator knows them well enough to be on first names terms, but the majority of members don't have a clue, I certainly don't. Imagine you are new to the forum, newer members may feel somewhat excluded!

Agreed

[Dan2nd]

lol I agree I've always had a problem with names.. =[

[Elkaa]

Well, the topic made me laugh, as did the content :P

But using names would be nice, yea. Forum names, that is.

[Yoshimitsui]

I agree, I was thinking this a few hours back.

[The Professor]

I suppose the easy workaround to this would be to post "who's Steve?" You get an extra point to your post count that way too :P

[joshuar]

Yeah I agree too, I just go by Forum Names, much easier.

[cocaine]

well if you're congratulating someone then you might want to check the announcements, it'll probs be in there :P but i see your point anyway

[Test:Tube:Baby]

I agree it's easier to use their forum names, but I don't think there should be a rule added for it.

People being promoted isn't an extremely common thing, so if you see the announcements it should be pretty obvious who the thread is talking about anyway :D

I dont usually read announcements and think if i have to go off searching its not so good. maybe the thread title could be edited by staff? its just common sense to make it easier for everybody and not just the "in crowd"

That's fair enough, but I don't really understand why you think there needs to be a rule added for it. And in fairness, I think a lot of the time the username of the person does get mentioned, whether it is in the title or in the opening message. It is only occasionally that a thread like "Well done to Steve" gets made.

I'm all for people putting the persons forum name in the thread title, I just don't agree that a rule should be added for it :D

Maybe not a rule, but some common sense surely, there must be at least more than one Aarun, Ben, Chris, Dave on this forum. Mods need to get a little involved in this and edit the title after pm'ing the thread creator.

Well it depends because I don't think regular mods can edit the feedback forums, and I am not sure about SMods either :S

[Stephen08]

Thanks guys :)

The reason I mentioned a rule is because unless its in black and white then theres a few people who dont listen. I am not one for more rules I think the simpler the better :) but maybe edit this rule a little to make things easier.

B11. Do not make threads titles which have no relevance to the actual post - Do not make thread with titles like "see this" or "something interesting" or something similar to these. Put a title which is relevant to the thread and not something completely different.

[Immenseman]

Yeah I can see where you're coming from. Although I usually know the person I respect that not everybody does and could feel excluded. I'll make sure from now on that the persons forum name is in the thread title.
