Those of you who have not had your thread titles changed by anonymous volunteers without your knowledge or permission may think this imposed action by out anonymous volunteers to be helpful. You are welcome to express that view. Those posters to whom it matters enough to post - but to say only that it matters little to them - are perhaps wasting their post or are not being very honest or very considerate to their fellow posters.

As one who has suffered from this action on many occasions - I do not think that it is helpful to me or to our forum. Many posters do not seem to think that I am welcome to express that view. It is interesting that no one yet has responded to Bert - another long-term poster who is also considers that thread titles should be left to the originator and that permssion should be first sought for any changes - and is brave enough to post and say so.

Whether the proposed change is helpful or not - I suggest is a matter only for the anonymous volunteer proposing the change and the originator. Why is it so difficult for the originator always to be asked first by the anonymous volunteer - to be guided by the response or to leave the title as post - for the lack of a response?
