KB is a totalitarian dictatorship and always has been. We live with it. We might not like it but sometimes the positive outweighs the negative and you learn something new or meet someone that becomes a good friend.
I long ago found out there's no fucken point complaining....or offering constructive criticism.
In space, no one can smell your fart.
I hear ya
It's not the only forum like that - not by a bloody long shot. It makes me laugh when people rail against the high-handedness of authority. Give the average Joe or Jane Blow a little bit of authority and the natural inclination is NOT towards tolerance and consensus - we live in a tribal world.
My biggest problems are my iconoclast tendencies and parents who taught me that people can learn.

Oh dear, oh dear, what a dreadfully fraught situation we have here.
Thread titles are the site's window to the world. The Moderators reserve the right to make alterations to thread titles that are offensive, vague or ambiguous, or just plain silly. The vast majority of titles are fine, but a few are adjusted for clarity.
Minor alterations will be generally be made without consultation. There is little to gained from hugely time-consuming correspondence over something so trivial.
This site currently runs at about one Moderator per thousand members. The workload can be quite considerable at peak times. On average, there is usually only two mods on-line at any one time.
A minor modification to a thread title is not a big deal.
And I confess, I made the mischievous change to this thread's title.
Lighten up.

Well thanks for actually giving a response with a bit of thought behind it.
The change to the title of this thread didn't come as a surprise.
In the absence of a reply from the whoever changed my OP about the custom bike I'll take on board your comment about clarity. The original intent was to intrigue - I'll aim lower.
One mans "trivial" "minor" matter is another persons thoughtful contribution. Condescension and mockery irritate the fuck out of me and thus this has become a fairly long winded affair.
Yeah yeah - HTFU, get over it and lighten up.
Always, always well received
Virago - I didn't appreciate the tone but I can understand when people have to deal with something that they view as a distraction (I do it every day) - so genuinely thanks for your reply.

It's a pity threads aren't somehow grouped into related subject areas, so users could divine the content of threads from more than just the title. We could call these groupings "discussion subject groups".... or something.
Oh wait....
