This is a general gripe I have about how some people create poor subject lines when asking for assistance.
If this example cuts too deep, I'm sorry.

Subject: "Help!!!!"
Subject lines like that do a huge dis-service to a forum, the search function and other members.
Frankly. I won't even click on a subject line like that because, if someone doesn't care enough about receiving help to put forth a little effort when creating a subject line, then I don't bother to see what Help!!!! means.
Boil down the body of your problem and create a decent subject line. It's not that hard, it will assist persons searching a forum and will probably get your problem resolved faster.

I totally agree, some people are just way too lazy to put something more descriptive.

What may help, is the hack that you can add, so that unless the person who's making the initially post adds say a subject line of like 30 characters for example, then the post won't get submitted. It can be configured to the amount you want. Does that meakes sense ? Sometimes I waffle when I try to explain things HAHAHA.

Am not sure where you can get it from, but I know Codezwiz used to use it on his site at one time. Maybe he has a copy.
