I can see why people get annoyed but I personally find it quite funny.

I don't like it when they change one that was an amusing and humorous title to one that is simply a monotone description of the thread contents... that's just a c**ts trick.

But... when I see someone has tagged "AGAIN" onto the end of exhaust or tyre thread title number 1,435,876 it saves me reading it.

So... it balances out... and I've got more interesting things to raise my blood pressure over.

Yes i fooking do, i went to the trouble of thinking of one which was relevant to my thinking at the time, totally pointless messing with them, especially when the searches half the time dont call up what im after anyway.

If you see a thread titled 'what can?' or 'which tyres?' do you really need 'again' on the end of it to tell you that it is a repeat thread? If new threads weren't put up we'd all be riding around on BT 010s and trying to find Art cans.

someone puts what they want in a title the way they are thinking about it. Changing it is rude imo, as well as making the op think theyve then done something wrong.

Ive had them changed that have same it sound as though i was asking for information on breaking the law. This is well beond changing it to an informative title. I can see how it could help in a technical question but to be fair i just think its changing it for the sake of it half the time. To make the mods feel imotent (thats how its spelled right? ) it also doesnt help if your away from the forum and come back and cant find your thread as its now called something else.

last time i complained about it i wasnt given rime or reason just got my threads deleted. wonder if this will go the same way?

on the flip side on another forum im on they want 50% of any proffits you make through them (either services or for sale) and take ownership of any photos you put up so its not all bad is it?....

I wasn't 100% serious about that but you can see point... not fussed about it when just messing with the titles of threads when people just can't be *rsed to search or look 2 pages back.
