This forum is vast – overwhelming sometimes ( certainly for the moderators ) – and we depend on thread titles to navigate and be able to clearly understand the discussions.
In general, over the long haul, original posters do an excellent job coming up with good titles and updating their titles, as things change.
For instance, thread discussions naturally evolve and so a title can sometimes change to follow along.
Situations change too, as for instance a company adds a module format to their product line, or adds the VST version.
And i have made changes, when someone has an idea to make the title better, or less confusing. ( As for instance i struggled with this thread title. ) Most often those title change suggestions get made, soon after a new thread is created. Thanks to everyone who has dropped a suggestion along the way.
It’s not always obvious to a thread creator, that the title is non-specific, or in some other way misses the mark.
Here’s a thread though were you can drop a post when you find an older title that really needs a touchup, is out of date, misleading, or otherwise could be improved, especially. Or you can drop suggestions in the thread themselves, if the OP, is still active. It’s not a large portion of the threads but we’ve got a lot of threads.
Perhaps this can also be a thread for general guidelines on good thread titling.
Please make posts here the helpful kind.
ADDED : A thread’s category is overall part of it’s name. Here’s a good place to find the threads misclassified. Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing as it were.
In the interest of giving those that are seeking to buy less, and find threads on stuff to acquire triggering, that have muted the Other Gear category to avoid it, here’s a place to find Other Gear threads labelled something else, like for instance General Discussion.
