I've seen a number of posts lately like "How to get yadda yadda yadda" but when you click, the content is actually a question about the subject line, which sucks.

If you're posting a question, please make it look like a question. It's EASY... Just put a QUESTION MARK at the end of your subject line. It looks like this:

We're pirates here, not fucking savages.

Not to invalidate the point made, but…

While Japanese indeed uses question marks, you can get screwed if you think that every sentence without a question mark at the end is not a question. For example, this is a grammatically correct question:

それは質問ですか。

That's reasonable. I pulled that info from Wikipedia, and I don't speak Japanese, so I just was going off that.

for real... the か character I would even go so far as to claim is often MORE prevalent without the question mark.
