    :) its just not my forum. Whether or not I agree how its moderated in another forum (that I moderate, not that I think I own), I try and not use my "Global Mod Powers" unless its something that has been left for a real long time, like the mods arent here to edit it.

    Otherwise it would be like on Office Space when he was asked 8 times if he received the memo.

    Fine as in "consistent with the content in the article"? Yes.

    That's really the only one I'm concerned about.

    No. Unless piecing random words from the article to form a random title constitutes "fine and consistent with the content".

    I think this thread should be closed because no one wants to discuss the link Mixum actually posted but instead argue about shit that has nothing to do with the Blazers, Wallace or NBA basketball.

    Since I see Ed O is posting here so I'll wait because I'm still new at this mod stuff and he outranks me.

    Wallace waiting to start (Hate's his coach).

    Wallace waiting to start (thinks team sucks)

    Wallace waiting to start (wants to kick owners ass)

    Wallace waiting to start (thinks starting PF sucks)

    all those are great subject titles.

    Not at all.

    Wallace wants to start.

    He feels betrayed.

    The two are not linked in terms of both being about the Blazers: they are linked about how Wallace feels. All one has to do is read the article to clear up any confusion.

    I think, personally, that they are the two most important parts of the article.

    I don't understand the hullabaloo.

    The title of the article is "Wallace: Bobcats betrayed me." The url is wallace-bobcats-betrayed-me.html (SEO friendly).

    The article talks about that, and a few paragraphs in talks Blazers (Wallace waiting to start).

    I'm not seeing anything wrong with the title of the thread. It's a blazers' forum and the blazers relevant bit is promoted (first) in the thread title.

    Sheesh.

    I cant speak for everyone in this, but to me it seems like this is a big deal to some people because how it is felt that Mixum manipulates words to make a message come across how he wants it. At first glance I could see how some would feel that way about this one.

    I agree it was a bit misleading and coming from Mixum compounds that. It would have been easy to add 'by Bobcats' since there is no word limit on title threads.
