you more likely to read a topic or buy a book? For me the word "TACTIC(S)" will make me take a much closer look at a book or topic. How about you? |

Incomplete sentences in topic headlines make me open the topic. You meanie…. |

No. I tend find I prefer books (and threads) by particular authors, what they are called is largely irrelevant. Some things put me off though, almost anything which claims to be busting a 'myth' for example.
I also find incomplete topic headers somewhat annoying. |

No, but any title with the word "Idiot's" in it is right out. |

Yep. Unentscheidbare. Never passed up a paper with unentscheidbare in the title. |

Lewd pictures usually…failing that, anything with painted miniatures or mentions the same or aar in the title…
Of course pictures of "she that shall not be named" must be avoided…

My adviser in graduate school believed that Civil War books with the name Lincoln in the title sold better. His first book was a groundbreaking study of black troops in the Union army, which didn't sell all that well, but lacked the work "Lincoln" in the title. His second book, a biography of Union Admiral Samuel Phillips Lee was called Lincoln's Lee. Grelber |
