Hi all -
If you should start a new post please try to have some standards. Give a meaninful title so that it means something. That way more people will actually read it. And it helps if people should wish to refer back.

i.e. Don't have a subject of "Help!"
Have "Help! I have problems with my USB " etc.

For those of us that browse this forum having a meaninful subject title would help a lot.

I would have hoped that FREEOLA would have their own moderators who 'tidy up' issues such as this - but it seems not...

Hope all you active contributers will agree (and abide) with this.
Thanks - Mod.

Oh? You think that any other forum on Earth would tolerate topics like "HELP!!!" and retards who want us to design and build their whole site for them? They'd be laughed, ridiculed, kicked and banned out of town. Mod is a forum regular in disguise trying to make a point.

Though I say again, it isn't me :O[]

Miserableman you've hit the nail on the head !

I'm sure everyone would benefit from reasonably worded subject titles...

'Cheesyman' relax - "Why is a newbie trying to mod us all around to do what he wants?"

I'm not a newbie and I'm not trying to mod you all around. I've been around for some years but knowing the response I may receive from some members thought it 'safer' to create a new account. But as a member of this forum with an interest in Web Design,PC,Internet and FREEOLA I thought I would attempt to keep standards up so that this remains a useful resource.

Most 'half serious' forums have moderators and posting rules - No I wouldn't attempt this in General Chat or a Joke forum but thought some basic standards wouldn't go a miss in a non-joke forum.

Hope this doesn't upset other members too much - Thanks to those that seem to agree with my message.

OK.

Time to start the witch-hunt.

They have good gramma :c) so that rules out quite a few people.

Freeola is written in capitals so that may be a subliminal message.

Freeola-Moderator? No, he's never here...

cjh? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Tyla? Naaa.
Turbonutter? Doubt it.

I hate witchhunts where I don't know who to hunt.

:c(

As an alibi that pretty much sucked.

I don't come on here enough to get worked up about it. But if it WAS me then I would also have said:

Once you have thought of your title, try searching google for that term, reading the first link and seeing if it solves your problem.

A bit of a contradiction there, as my grammer/grammar/gramma can be really poor at times.

How is it spelt anyway, that word??
