[devil's advocate]
Since we seem to be in a "I'm going to tell you what to do" mode lately, here's what I propose: If you have a complaint about the way the forum runs, at least have the guts to say it up front using your main persona instead of hiding behind the safety of a new name. If anything, at least you'll be taken more seriously.
Notice this does not apply to people who just have multiple handles but we all know who they are anyway. This applies to the ones who create handles so they can escape responsibility and not have to stand up to their statements. If you don't have the balls to stand behind your statements, then you're in no position to be telling other people what to do.

That said, yeah, I do find some threads that say "hey ___, get in here" mildly annoying, and maybe it would be better if U2girl consolidated all of her questions and thoughts into one thread instead of spreading them over 10 threads in the same day, but really - does it really matter?? Does it inconvenience you in some way?
If you're so uptight that improper grammar in thread titles annoy you so much that you feel you have to [anonymously] order people not to do so, then I think you need to take a step back and learn some breathing exercises or yoga (
) to center yourself and see the bigger picture - this is a forum, lighten up a little.
You may now resume your regularly scheduled forum browsing.
