For all you FR veterans. The most obvious way to search for a previous post would be to see if the original hyper-link was used. If you want to keep your quaint system of looking for titles when titles are almost always subjective, fine. But please don't act like this is rational, and the rest of the world outside your little clubhouse is a lower life form because they don't know the secret handshake. If you want your site to grow with intelligent contributors, you'll have to stop treating people like outsiders that aren't members of the club.

Number one, don't start a debate over whether the rules of the forum should be adhered to. That is a slam dunk. The forum's owners make the rules.

Number two, posting guidelines also demand that the original title of the linked content be included in the thread title. That makes the thread easier to find. It is not reasonable to force readers to find thread by searching for the hyper-link.

Number three, enhancing available search techniques is a perfectly reasonable request to respectfully make.
