Changing questions.

Why does this site change the name of your questions? I have noticed that eventually the name of your question gets changed. The title you give your question gets modified a bit by somebody else. Please give suggestions. Thank You.

I asked the same question... more specifically whether advisors change questions and to quote lexicon...

Yeah, we do change titles from time to time. Some of the reasons we change them:

1. They have a nasty word in the question (ie: something your grandmother would be shocked to hear)
2. The question isn't really a question
3. The question is given a one word title

An example: If you typed 'Pets' as the title for your question 'How can I get a new pet?', we would change the title to 'How do I get a new pet?'- this is so the title lets other members know what the question is, at a first glance.

Here's the link to the answers I got

We also sometimes recatagorize your questions
like the example given above...if someone were to put that in lets say nutrition and fitness we would probably change it to pets and animals so that your question has a better chance of getting better advice

So no one will be offended by some of the stuff people put on here.
