Re: How I Use Post Titles.
Purely out of curiosity, how did you use the thread title above each post?
Sorry for the long delay in answering you, Mr. Andrews, I'm just getting back to the site now.
I personally used the post titles for a multi-post tutorial, where the different phases of the tutorial are broken into sections, in order to increase legibility of long tutorials, and to aid in understanding of complex procedures. Think of the posts being treated like blog postings, with the overall theme of the thread being one thing (e.g. an Iron Man Costume), but each Post has an individual title (e.g. Making the Helmet, Making the Chest Plate, Boots, etc.), to aid in navigation and comprehension.
I have also used them for responding to complex threads like this one, where you can target the response; like if this post had the title visible I would use "
Re: How I Use Post Titles."
Like I said, I understand the reasoning behind the decision to remove them, I just believe that they do have a function, albeit used by only a few people.
If its a question of minimising space, perhaps the title could be placed on the same line/ header, in between 'x minutes ago' and the post number.
I like Mr. Castillo's idea of putting it between the timestamp and post number, but that may add clutter.
Your call, of course.
