I personally don't see anything wrong with wanting to embellish or jazz up your thread with a fancy title. I find it helps engage the viewer to take a peek at your thread because your title stands out. I find if you generalize or simplify a title, the viewer might just peek at the title, get the basic idea of the thread from the title and decide whether or not they want to post in it. With a more compelling title, it gives the viewer a sense of "oh what an interesting title I wonder what it could be about" For example I titled a thread Damn...sure is crowded around here. People can interpreted that title into whatever they want, but wont know for sure until they click on it. Then it might motivate them to read the thread to find out what the topic is really about and who knows by the end of it they might want to form a response.
I'll agree some are a bit over the top and just silly...I.E disturbs thread"don't be silly warp your willy" What are we..10 years old?. No offense to disturb but really.
