    Sometimes I get into some posts that has nothing to do with the title of the post. This causes me problems beause sometimes I think that I've found the answer to my question and when I start reading the post's content it has nothing to do with the title.

    This is just a sugestion to everyone. I always try to search before posting a question, but it turns dificult becasue the titles of the posts are not descriptive enough. My time is money so I allways decide to give only 5 minutes to the search and then post if can't find the answer, but sometimes the answer is already in the forum :mad:.

    Be descriptive and concise. I know that I'm not the example here, but now on I'll make my best efforts to be descriptive enough in the title of all my posts.

    For Example, if I want to know how to automatically submit a sitemap XML to Google with PHP I would post a question with the following title:
    "How to auto submit a sitemap XML to google with PHP?"

    And you? How would you title the question?

    I saw posts with titles like:

    "Sitemap problem" - Which problem?
    "Adsense question" - Which question?

    P.S. - My mother tong is not English but I try my best to express myself in english in the better way I can, but I already saw people out there expressing very bad even when their mother tong is English.

    Hope you undestand my point.
    Thanks for your attention :D:D,

    If you are not happy you can always give a negative rep and explain why you did it or else report spam to mods here.

    I normally use quick reply for my replies, there is no option to add title here. or are you talking about new threads created?
