>FLAME is OFF

  I'm not one who typically gripes about little things like this, but I
would like to make a motion to eliminate subject headings such as...
"HELP ME PLEASE!" or "READ THIS NOW!" or "                  ".
  My common reaction to these postings is just simply to ignore them. But
after a weekend with 3000 new messages, these headings are becoming slightly
tiresome and annoying. If "you" really need help, please specify the
appropriate subject. For most, this is quite obvious, but I stumbled over
3 of these in this area in just 2 days.
  This should probably be posted in a more general area, but I got the
motivation here...

Thank you.
