So you're telling me that in order to post an important news story on FR, one has to use the same headline as a biased French news service?!? The title of my thread accurately reflected the content of the story which is that two-thirds of New Orleans' police officers have gone missing.
When people post stories they do a search (by a few words in the title) to see if it has been posted before.
If people don't use the original title then you end up with huge numbers of duplicates, drastically lower the quality of this site. The moderators are left with more work, and worse, they can't even fix it because they can't search properly either. It would be lame chaos.
Yes that is what is required. If you have comments put them in ()s beside the actual title.
We don't care.
Obey the rules.
And, FGS, stop whining.
It's not that bad, really. Just don't editorialize, or change the title of the article you're posting. This has been posted numerous times on posting primers by the mods.
I'm broadcast live in front of a pre-recorded studio audience.
Either follow FR's posting rules, or don't post and please refrain from telling a MOD that what you do, is better than following the rules here. Next thing we know, you'll be yelling at Jim and telling him how to run FR, I guess.
So you're telling me that I don't get to make up my own rules, that I don't get to do as I please on someone else's site? LOL. Welcome to conservatism. Ping us when you have your site up and running.
Yes Dumbass
If you want to add editorial contents to the title, the mods allow you to enclose them in parentheses after the title. But yep, we want the real headlines here. If you don't like it, take it up with the boss.
