You know what I just figured out...

I'm a premium member, and there's a premium podcast feed....

You better have been watching Metal Gear Scanlon. If not then you're not allowed to eat or sleep until you've finished. Good luck.

Isn't it generally accepted that the premium version of the podcast is worse than the normal version because it cuts the brilliant ads out?

This.

Also, the trend of clickbait-style headlines for forum posts on the Giant Bomb forums is getting a bit ridiculous.

I still use the free feed because I prefer overcast which doesn't support auth feeds, also the ad shenanigans are pretty sweet.

Edit: quick forum search shows that it does work, woops

I fixed it. I actually edit thread titles daily to make them more descriptive, or will ask users to come up with a better title on their own. The most common offense is threads with titles such as, "I have a question????????"

Vague or intentionally misleading thread titles are an annoyance we specifically spelled out in the rules as something we don't want on the forums. I don't want anyone to feel bad about their thread titles though; we realize that forums are a new thing for many people, so if your topic's title gets changed or you are asked to change it, don't feel too bad about it. It isn't a big deal at all, we all have been doing this daily for years at this point.

Vague thread titles: The reader should be able to tell what your topic is about without clicking on it. Topics with intentionally vague or misleading titles are subject to editing or deletion.
