    firstly there needs to be a shout box on the front page, so people can express their feelings at the time
    in a quick and visible way, so it's not in a thread.
    a shout bot in a forum is great for communication to keep ticking over, like I might post, darn it's hot today,
    the next guy might post, scored a couple great laptops today, next guy shouts, bloody freezing in canada today.
    and so on, so it keeps ticking over on the front page, people get to express their emotions or just a statement of the day.

    second thing I think is even bigger, and that's what this thread is about so.
    there needs to be a forum law on how threads are titled.
    opinions should be left out and just keep clear as to what the topic is.
    not looking at any in particular, just the ones right now in the A Day in the Life of a Scrapper section

    here's the titles..



    Another day at the yard....haha not really
    Unreal request
    Ahhhh, what a disappointment
    So Much Yellow!
    Good Week
    Flying theFlag Today
    Value of these boards
    $3 investment and turning it into an easy $30+ return

    these are nothing titles, merely opinons and statements that could be written in the first line of the actual post,
    the're not searchable yet the posts within will probably have good info.
    the looseness of the titles creates a looseness in the way people post things, almost like a competition of bill boards
    to attract readers attention, sometime the title is longer then what they write in a post!

    Something may be worth more than the sum of its parts when it's new, but not by the time we get it, lol.
