No offence, but I think it is a a good time to again, remind old and new members to think a little bit when posting, and make the title a little bit more specific to the content of your post.

"Hey all" is acceptable for newbie comin' in, but others like "what is this?" , or "read this" may not be read by some of our busier members so miss on good input. Also if ends up a really good informative post/thread/whatever may be missed when search function is being used.

At least try to add model or engine type, or a few related to topic words in title

And, if you are guilty of this, have found a post of yours with a lame sort of title can be fixed by edit and go advanced.

And, by all means , please point any of mine out to me if I have been guilty - but not all at once - my PM box lives about 90% chockers :p

Once posted - Can you edit a title ? if so, How ?
Also if it's in the wrong section, who do we see to get it moved ?
