Reply With QuoteActually, quite a lot of people care about rep, or it wouldn't get talked about to the extent that it does on this forum.
As for the rest of your post, I'm down with that.
Etiquette
Can we all agree to just write the main players in a deal in the title (Exe Seguin for Hall; Benn/+ for Giroux). Not a big deal, but I personally stear clear of posts that say 'Big Trade', 'Need help with this deal', or 'Quick trade advice'. Also nobody cares about rep.
Good night...and good luck.

To me this falls under "suggested forum usage". A bad title could lead to fewer or no replies. If people avoid those threads, then hopefully the author learns and changes his approach.
Lately with no hockey on the table it's kinda tough to not eventually see all threads though...

i totally agree,
few more things:
include the information about the league or state where the information is in your signature (ie it is the 2nd team in my sig)
provide some context. Mention a few FA players out there. Burminstrov has less value if most of hte blue chip prospects are unowned.
give as much information as you can. Most of it will be asked for eventually if it is not a slam dunk deal.

I personally have no issues with people writing "Big Trade" or "ANYTHING BOLD HERE" in their title to their thread. Whatever it takes to draw peoples attention to their thread is fine with me. I really dont see the difference.
I also write *rep* in some of my titles too. Again, I dont see the issue.
I will look at them all, just because someone writes something funky in their title shouldnt deter anyone from reading what they want.

Is fantasy badminton a thing? Because if it is, I'm gonna be aaaaaaall over that real soon!
Seriously though, I don't think rules should be put in place for this kind of stuff. It's not needed. A bit of freedom and creativity never hurt anyone. Also, I think that people get the hang of it pretty fast that it's good if they have the relevant info handy and that's really the only important thing for other people to respond properly.
GO WINGS!
It's really just a pet peeve of mine, seeing 15 "OMG HELP WITH TRADE ADVICE QUICK ******REP!********" posts. Agree that there's nothing 'wrong' with it

It catches your eyes though doesn't it. I guess they are working.

Totally agree! It would be a VERY boring place if all we put in titles were player names and personally I would be less apt toread the forums and participate.
As far as "rep", it means a lot to be appreciated and thanked for the time and effort you put in to help a fellow fantasy owner.
I think this boils down to Lockout Blues- not enough hockey to talk about/ too much time to nit-pit on lesser things.

AGREED. Ther are far more things in this world to worry about then how a dobber member chooses to title his/her thread. I scroll through them all regardless of how it's presented. Let's move on.
Hockey Pools? Too many to mention. Points only, salary cap and dynasty.
I don't think theres a problem, nor any changes/guidelines that need to be enforced. Thats actually a really good way to make people not want to come here anymore.
Don't sweat the small stuff.
Other than the "Rep" tag, I have no problem with the title issue. Some titles are very witty. But I believe Rep should be used as a thanks not a bribe...that's my only problem.
