    Please, Please put a real and complete subject in the Title so I will know if it is a question I can answer or am interested in reading about.
    A quilter's time is precious and I rather not take the time to search through to find what the subject is about.

    I agree with your request, but you did not do what you ask in the title to your post.

    Perhaps: Post titles need descriptive key words!

    This also helps those trying to find posts at a later date.

    I have asked for more discriptive titles also but to no avail.
    It was really bad when I only had dial up.
    Now I mostly ignore incomplete posts.

    Donna Jean: You are correct. I should have made it more descriptive myself. Your suggestions is much better:

    Post titles need descriptive key words!

    And that would then sure solve the problem of trying to find previous subjects which were discussed in length.

    I agree!!!!!!!! Especially if I want to do a search on topic before I post. Actually I tend to ignore post that do not have descriptive title. Good luck trying to get all to comply!

    Yep, in a perfect world, folks would read and follow the posting instructions, use the search function first, put their posts in the correct topic area, use a descriptive title, and WOULD NOT SHOUT.
    But we don't live in a perfect world. I just skip the vague topics.
