    If I wanted to say something different in the title - I would have!

    Thats an incredible level of micro-management and displays a fairly disturbing mindset.

    etc

    Why the hell bother??

    Right??


    Oh - and to the latest title changer: Hilarious

    Such witty editing leaves me completely in awe of the abilities and judgment of the moderators of this fine site.

    I just arrived - what have I missed?

    Was this thread always called "Call the waaambulance...."?

    The other thread was called "Revealed!!!" (I HATE multiple exclamation marks though) and was then renamed "Victory Custom Revealed!"

    The thread starter has complained about the first change but what was the second change from?

    I am not sure what to say

    I think the latest thread title covers it all really.

    So that's pretty much it.

    Whoever did change the title isn't worried about explaining themselves - not able to another 2 minutes out of an obviously busy life to say "Look sonny - I changed it cos I can and you can stop bloody whinging and piss off!" (which is the most likely response, it would appear).

    Good job mods

    well done

    Give the Mods a break. The change of title clarified the topic and I'm sure drew more interest. I usually just check for New Posts and its a 50/50 call as to whether I'd have looked at Revealed - probably thought it was pron or something inane....

    So why not say so?

    If you missed out on looking at it - hard luck. Theres 100's of posts per day, you're going to make value calls on them for any number of reasons.

    I don't post a lot and so I try to give some thought to them. Now - the mods won't know that, who the hell could keep up with the comings and goings in this zoo?

    I'm just irritated at the arbitrariness of it and, to be blunt, the reponses from other mods thus far in THIS thread haven't exactly soothed me - so now I'm pissed off.

    I've moderated on enough forums to know how things fall in the cracks and also how sometimes you get into a zone of just making decisions without giving them too much thought. I always found feedback to be welcome though - so I gave some.

    That was SUCH a good idea
