I agree. Most people on there are just trying to make the pack name a bit more interesting. As long as it's not out of control, of course.

It's stated here, though that is true, they are like that. No one seems to follow that rule very well.Songdog wrote: -Don't put weird symbols in the topic title to make it look fancy: ....~~\|/Whoot\|/~~....

Re: Things Not To Put In A Topic Title
Also the weird symbols sometimes dont work on certain peoples windows and makes it look all messed up and screwy, and it makes things hard to read.

Re: Things Not To Put In A Topic Title
If there are way too many symbols, it can be distracting, annoying, and disturbing. Decorating the topic's name is allowed as long as it's minor and the actual title can be read properly. Some people use "design" in their pack topic names to lure members; it can make a pack look very interesting if the name has unknown or rare special html characters.

For a pack I'm in, all they did for their title was:
☼Thunderclan☼
Or something like that.

Re: Things Not To Put In A Topic Title
Using one or two special characters isn't disturbing. But the example Mezz gave us (***~~~---___\{The_(pack name)_Pack}/___---~~~***) goes over the line in my opinion. For instance, it is way too long and stuffed full of html/special characters. It's not very nice to browse topics like that. It's just plain distracting.

Re: Things Not To Put In A Topic Title
I totally agree with you Songdog. It does get annoying with titles like that.
