Elimination of unhelpfulidea titles

I think there should be a forum rule that allows (along with when they come for the ruled out ideas) eliminate any idea that does not state in its title what the idea actually is. Here is a partial list (a full list is impossible) of examples of titles that should be immediately removed

• Idea
• Clan Wars
• Please read
• Best Idea Ever
• Greatest Idea ever
• Anything that is the anything 'ever'
• Urgent, read this NOW!!!
• Next update
• We need this
• I want this
• Do this right now!
• It over
• Please
• Just a thought
• Now!
• Fix
• Why can't we do this?!?
• Etc...

There are server keywords that would be terrific to censor out of titles with hearts like swears and other things. Better yet, have it refuse to accept an idea with any of these words in the title.

• "ever"
• "Greatest"
• "Best"
• "Important"
• "Zap"
• "Idea"
• "Now"
• "Urgent"

I am sure other forum members can suggest more useless titles or keywords to censor.

The " great new idea!!!!" That is never great, or new.........

When you think you are a "great new idea" but you are really leftover taco meat

I think they should filter any INF thread that fails to meet a certain word count criteria. 50+ words seems to have meaning and thought behind it. There a bunch in the Troop/Spell requests that are 1 sentence.

Yea its pretty sad

What if this annoying title actually has a very unique idea or the idea is really that good?

Just don't comment on it and rate it one star, the same way people treat spam bots, or maybe post a reminder without anything related to the content

That's like finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, great for a fairy tale but never happens in real life...



Also, while we are filtering, how about blocking the response " wrong sub-forum" ? Especially if this is the entire reply.

if you know the answer then just answer the question. If you don't, suggest someone " try the X sub-forum, you might have better luck there"

They they should be able to say that in the title.

Edited OP to add "Why can't we do this?!?" after seeing that one appear after I posted this.
