Subject: RE: In the UK......? (thread title change complaint)
Thanks for your reply Joe.

The problem is of course not just that particular thread. It has been an ongoing issue that is very sensitive to Shambles.

The way I see it is that if a Mudcatter FEELS that he/she has been dealt with unfairly then it is an issue that we must address. And first we must come down firmly on the side of the member (or guest) who feels that they have been slighted.

I know that Joe is doing his very best for Mudcat but I think that changes to threads and titles should be only made in a consistent manner. When only 25% of threads have location information then that is not consistent and any poster who has this information added to his/her thread title could rightly assume that they are being singled out.

Let's decide if threads should have location information in their titles and then put that information in ALL threads or let us clones keep our fingers to ourselves and leave well enough alone.

In several years of having had the ability to edit threads, I have found a real need to add location information to ANY thread title.
