Thread Name: Tech: Problem with thread titles?
Subject: RE: Tech: Problem with thread titles?
The following thread has been relegated to the BS section of our forum and then closed by persons unknown and for reasons unknown - as there was no editing comment of explanation provided.

TECH Longer thread titles please

This action was imposed on our forum partly because my friend Wolfgang (for reasons of his own) having seen the now closed thread - decided to refresh this older thread.
(Shambles)

Don't you realise what a nonsense you post, Shambles? It is difficult to tell from afar whether you have a problem with the Englsig language or whether you have one with clear thinking.

If you write in the first line "for reasons unknown" you can't in any meaningful way use the word "because" in the third line for that word implies that you have knowledge of a causal connection. You can't have it both ways.
If you want to write "for reasons unknown" you have to use the word "after" instead of "because".
If, however, you want to use the word "because" you could have written for istance "for reasons unspecified". Okay?

So what did you want to tell us?

Wolfgang (in a helpful mood)
