    Why do you guys (insert name)

    when its written below the post anyway

    if you make a post in here we're gonna see what your screen name is anyway so you dont have to put it in the title... but if it makes you feel special then it's fine with me, i just think it looks stupid.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Cool

    Awwww stop picking on the newbies....


    Maybe they have been told to do that in some new newbie rules.



    Hey all newbies its ok to add your name into the title line if you want to do that..

    I did wonder about it myself. It started a couple of months ago, with almost all newbie intro threads now having that title format. Is it a case of copy-cat, or is it a Moderator added feature?

    On the other hand, who cares? If that's all you've got to moan about gareth, you've got a great life.....

    I do it because some people may use RSS feeds (which dont say who wrote the thread), and sometimes Im reading posts based on who wrote it, not what the subject title is. With the exception of this post of course.

    Indeed they do. It's a way of making it easier to navigate a gazillion threads imaginatively titled "Hiya" or "Newbie speaks".

    I didnt put my name in mine. I did think it was a bit silly because my name is under the title anyway.

    If you mean the "MDU" I put at the end of each post - I hadn't thought about it, but For me it's a habit rolling over from my job doing a lot of professional correspondence.
