LOL so sweet! I didn't blink an eye when I saw "urgent" and it was because of something being discontinued! Thank goodness it isn't something I use or I would have had to not buy groceries for a couple weeks!

I still don't think I would have used the term URGENT, but rather saved that for a true human emergency. Just my one person's opinion... Your mileage may vary.

While I understand (and even agree with) what some of you are saying about making the subject line a bit more informative, I have to ask, why single out Jellybelly? Lots of folks on here aren't as complete with their subject lines as they could be. And I do mean lots. Okay, it's a bit of an annoyance sometimes, but we do have to allow for different perspectives on these things. To some of you, the point of Jellybelly's post isn't an urgent matter at all. To others, this is big news that they are happy to have. Either way, she was trying to be helpful.
In a perfect world (and a perfect quilting forum) subject lines would be thorough, informative and complete. But I've yet to find that world, or that forum, so let's just play nice and be tolerant. :D

Gees, cut the girl some slack will ya. I've seen plenty of crappy topic titles. Not everyone spends every waking moment here with their "slow downloading" computer reading every topic.
We quilters tend to think that this kind of thing is important...to everyone....
I found a fabric line once that I absolutely loved and unfortunately it had already been discontinued and the LQS hadn't taken down the quilt made with it yet. I spent a year searching for every single fabric in that line so I could do the quilt. I found it all and have it all kitted up and ready to go.
Maybe she was just trying to be nice and give everybody the heads up so they wouldn't have to do what I did.
No harm no foul.
