[BRACKETS!!] Subject

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by iEx, Jun 11, 2014.

  1. Why are people putting brackets around their thread titles? Just something I noticed people doing that doesn't make a whole lot of sense... I think pimd started it. They tend to do things that don't make sense.
     
  2. Julie is just stupid 
    Almost as bad as Lucy and Kelon
     
  3. Brackets got nothing to do with.julie 

  7. [{That's ok kelon, let them be annoyed. Its what fuels us}]
     
  8. It's not annoying  oooo [{ brackets }]
    It does nothing but stand on the sides
     
  9.  Do you think putting brackets around your text annoys anyone?
     
  10. [{Uh.. By the post kelon made a few lines above, yeah}]
     
  11. [{I certainly hope it annoys someone}]
     
  12. I think op meant just in the titles guys. Like [support] and stuff. Not the brackets thing in general.

    Op idfk but i also dont care
     
  13. You're all a bunch of scrubs  One day you might be a fail troll at best.
     
  14. Yes I was referring to the thread subjects.
     
  15. Lol ppl prolly think me and iEx dislike each other

    But in real life we are buds 
    Damn i troll too harddddd
     
  16. It's to tell you what kind of thread it is 

    Like if it's a support/no support thread
    An update
    Announcement
    Whatever.

    But yeah, they are pretty pointless and a tad bit annoying now hat everyone is using them
     
  17. We've been doing it to help categorize event and announcement threads, we generally try to use the same or similar 'tags' like this so it's easier to glance at the title and know what it's all about.
    Ie :
    [EVENT]
    [LEADERBOARD]
    [NEW ITEM]
    [RESOLVED]
    etc....

    However, the spammed misuse of that system has made it less effective.
     
  18. Not so annoying. Just pointless. The forums are divided into sections that tell you what type thread it is and if you appropriately title your thread there shouldn't be any need for another subject. It's no big deal but it would save everyone a 50th of a calorie if they omitted the brackets 
     
  19. I've been playing since 2011 and this is the first time support has commented on a thread of mine  Thanks for the answer. At least I know where it started now.
