I thought "Titles should be descriptive and explicit instead of humorous or vague?"

There's a solution to these:

Report>poor title.

As far as those titles go, the OP is LunaLovegood, who has already made a promise to make better titles in the future, so that point is null. There is no need to "police" what has already been discussed and dealt with.

"Title and Flair your post appropriately", rule 4. That's all I see, I don't know where you are getting this other bullsht, fake crp that it is.

There is no bullsht or fake crp here and I'm disappointed that you would accuse me of such for no good reason. Have a look at this quite recent announcement, it should clear things up regarding rules, as sadly not all is included in sidebar. Also, I'd expect a certain amount of general etiquette without having to have everything explicitly stated in the rules, but of course not everyone will follow such.

If you happen to be new to WPD community, a simple and effective guideline is just to tell what happens and where, why is perhaps the least important, although appreciated as well. For example, here the title could be simply "man shoots another man at a café" or since you seem to know the backstory, you could add that as a reason. But the most important is still that a man gets shot and the title should reflect that.

Also reminding you of the sidebar rules, which you according to your previous comment already know, please do try to adhere to the Pyramid of debate for the quality of this site and enjoyment of all users. I believe the expression "you f*cks" does slip down to the 2nd level.

Edited for better form.

SFinTX was the best submitter on the former reddit sub, we should all be grateful he's also here.
I'm willing to give him some leeway on the titles if that means he contributes more, so cut him a bit of slack please....

He's being an absolute prick about it, though.

Will be done, then.

STFU, your "announcement" is just another person's rant, lol. Go get a hobby mr policeman, you're on the wrong platform to preach.

"Just another person's rant", which has been marked as announcement and approved by a moderator here. The post itself may have been a rant, but you may notice that that is the line condoned by moderators. It became an announcement from the moment a moderator marked it an announcement.

I feel like these posts are the reason why the rule was put in place.

You seem hostile. There's no need for that.
