Proper title in Emulator Questions

[The-Eradicator]

I see a bunch of threads in Emulator Questions all the time that have thread titles such as "I have a problem PLEASE HELP!!!!111!!!ONE!!!". Titles such as this don't give us any hint of what the actual problem is. It wastes the time of people trying to help because they have to look at a multitude of threads they aren't able to answer.

For example, I can't answer Lua questions because I work with MaNGOS.

It'd be better for everyone involved if those threads had better titles. Contributors could, at a glance, tell if they know anything about the problem, and the original posters would have a better chance of someone actually looking at the thread.

Examples of bad thread names:

Help!!!

I need help i'll +rep

I have a litle problem

Private Server Problem

Help please-



Examples of good thread names:

Compiling 64 bit arcemu

Server crash in orgrimmar

Arenapoint system on Mangos

Best 2.4.3 EMU?

Exporting Vendors

I made a custom Weapon, but I cannot use skills because a "melee" weapon is needed

I'd like to see a new rule: Make a proper title that shows what your question is.

Incidentally, said suggested rule already exists, but I don't think most people have seen it.

Incidentally, this rule is routinely ignored in Emulator Questions, which is rather annoying as well.


Thanks for reading.

Moving it or duplicating it in Emulator Questions would probably ensure people in that section would see it, though it doesn't mean they'd follow it (considering they don't follow the existing sticky).

Resolved. Feel free to suggest anything to add in the thread.

I've gone through all of the first page and renamed all the topics to something that is suitable, so that people can follow other peoples examples even if they don't read the sticky.
