The click bait titles for subjects? I don't fall for them out there, I am not going to open them here, but MAN this place is starting to look trashy. Can we leave them to the idiotic ad-spamming websites that try to get you to click a page per pic or subject and not bring that kind of "guess what the next word is" lunacy here? As I mentioned, I don't fall for them out there, I am not going to open them here. Can we grow up and just be COMPLETE with the title? |

Only after we can post longer titles. |

I haven't seen many people outside of Tango doing that, to be honest. |

Since you don't fall for them what difference does it make? |

I think it is more in the interest of the poster than the browser that a title is fully descriptive – if you have something to say and you think it is interesting, then why would you create a half title that automatically causes part of your potential audience to turn away. Then again, I don't post a picture with blog post links (my soreness still relates to the no Clicky no Picky thread), so what do I know? I guess people just post in their natural style and that they believe that style to be interesting or tantalising enough to have people click, but clearly not everyone will always think so. Not sure that it matters so much as it is likely it is the poster who loses out ultimately. You get to know some of the names here and that can guide you as much as anything else as to whether you want to click or not. |

I was about to say I do that all the time on the Conversions board, but I took a quick look and could only find one instance. Now for Something Completely Different … I will have to step up my game on that. |

…no, and the reason for not stopping such titles is … |
