    Random thread titles appearing in threads?

    Today, I've noticed that occasionally, and in no particular order, when people are replying to threads, it is adding the thread title with RE: at the beginning in bold.

    How come its random?

    Re: Random thread titles appearing in threads?

    It happens because.......

    I just turned it on

    ....it's random if people manually change/remove it.

    Otherwise it will always now show the title with Re: at the beginning.

    Yer, it looks a bit odd - but I'm sure we'll all adapt in a day or two
