HOW DARE YOU?

















The "respectfully" part, I mean.

 

I have a 95 2500 and it has the Dana 60 front axle if that helps at all.

 

The OP also got our attention real quick with a crappy thread title, that is totally useless for anyone searching info about this hidden topic! LOL

 

Interesting that you mention this. One of the things that got me in hot water with the DF Gods was my habit of editing/rewriting thread titles for just this reason. I think it serves little purpose to have obscure thread titles like this. Not only does it force members to click on the thread to see what it is about (very selfish IMO), but the thread is basically useless in a search. For a technical forum where there is a lot of archived information readily available, this is inexcusable.

 

+1...... A title like that belongs in OFF TOPIC ! But, who am I? Or you? Or us? LOL

 

It is excusable for one reason. He is a new guy still learning the ropes. This isn't some military operation where the new guys go through basic training before they get here.

We were all newbies once. I already PMed him a personal welcome, with a note attached letting him know about generic titles in the future.

Now, if he were a seasoned member of DF with hundreds of posts, you're right. Its inexcusable. Or if he did this repeatedly, again you're correct. However, he's not, and he hasn't.

BTW, this is a bit of a hijack. No more thread title talk in this thread please.

 

NP....

 

That title scared me.I thought it was the government informing us we have mandatory cash for clunkers vehicles.

 

What I was referring to as inexcusable was the idea of leaving the thread title alone, not the poster's action. We want ALL members to use the search feature, but we do nothing to make it work better, which ends up making it useless and gives members, new and old, an excuse not to use it. I don't see why there's anything wrong with changing the title to something more search friendly and telling the poster the reason why the title was changed. Same with fixing misspellings in thread titles. Ultimately, the betterment of the forum is the motivation and people shouldn't be so quick to get their feelings hurt over it.
