It's almost as bad as titles that give you no clue what the post is about!

I didn't make the title more descriptive partly because the whole question wouldn't fit in the subject field.

It actually bugs me a little more now that I know other people don't mind and think it's trivial. :/

How about this for a possibly better question: Why does the forum call them "postings"?

So it's not one of you subtly making Vagueness lose his mind? I'm disappointed.

Well, I have heard of 'postings' before, but ok, 'posts' is obviously the most common.

I'm quite fond of 'digital telegraphed notings' myself.
