I wish…
That the OP could edit the topic title as he can the op.
As an example:
I posted a topic called “HP Staff”.
In retrospect, this sounds like a message to HP, when that was not the intent.
It would be nice if I could have gone back and changed it to:
The HP Staff.
The HP Staff at HubCamp.
The Annual HP Picnic Staff Picture.
The HP Annual Board Meeting.
HP is Watching You!
Etc.
The main use of this function, however, would be to clean up nuances, typos, spelling errors, grammar errors, etc.
Edit: Feel free to change the title to something awesome if so inclined.
Edit #2: My current favorite is:
The HP Staff Is Watching Us!
I can see this just causing confusion, not to mention it opens to door to some potential abuses by spammers and people having flame wars.
In retrospect, maybe you just need to think about your titles for just a minute before you make a new forum post...
I knew someone like YOU would come along…
We are talking about the human species here! What YOU are suggesting is just never going to happen.
BTW, here is a better way for YOU to have made your statement:
“People just need to think a minute before making a forum post.”
As opposed to your original statement:
“In retrospect, maybe YOU just need to think about your titles for just a minute before YOU make a new forum post...”
Did YOU notice how I didn’t use the word “YOU” in my suggested statement?
Do YOU understand?
Since the comments you made were in first person singular, it made sense that my replies be in second person singular, as they were addressed to the sole other participant in the thread.
If you don't like being directly addressed, maybe your future forums posts should utilize a third person form of representation or the infamous royal "we."
So much for my attempt at trying to create a kinder, gentler relache…

For the second time in the last few weeks, the HP newsletter is telling me about Barbie. Other times as of late, it appears to become a platform for HP staff to express their thoughts on current events. Shouldn't the point of the HP newsletter be to tell me about HubPages? If I want news,...

Hey Staff,Please get your moderation team on the same page. I am beginning to get PISSED OFF at their incompetence.Last time I checked, RSS Feeds are allowed to be ON hubs and must be relevant to the HUB.I am getting sick and tired of moderators telling me to DELETE specific links inside RSS Feeds,...

Jack and Jill have been up and down the hill 10 times already as the guage slowly stumbles up one side. I'm only amusing myself by observing and not really holding my breath over each cent increase, but it is amusing all the same.

CNN Commentators' Worst Day Ever—in my opinion of course.I was watching CNN's Jake Trapper and an on-scene reporter discuss the protests. As the backdrop video, (the location of the on-scene reporter), was showing live footage of fires and looting, they both minimized the police kneeling, (as...
