To be clear, I added a couple of words to your "one word titles" as an extra info for everyone to understand better what the thread is about - and save their time if they weren't interested in the particular topic.
I can possibly set the title length to (let's say) 40 characters so we don't have to deal with one word titles at all. Will that be a better solution? The biggest issue is time to write/test the code but I'll put it on the list.

If I'll ever come across a new tread with only one letter or word in it I'm not going to bother and remove it straight away. What would you do in that situation?

Thanks for understanding SiTie, I really appreciate it.

With the exclamation mark it looks like an order, I don't really like that. So I decided to ignore it.
So you're having this short memory? Here's a bit of help:

In the Netherlands we pay €90/year. 180 days per trip, Europe only and a €50 own risk for baggage.
(90 days is standard, but when we objected they changed it to 180)
Can you remember now?

A racist comment ?
Sorry, but I can't even find your answers amusing.
Let stand serious enough to merit a response.

I get it now, you can't even see what's wrong there and I'm really sorry if you don't understand what racism actually is. Due to this fact, all your posts from now on, will have to be approved by a moderator before they can be visible on this public forum.
Racism is when someone thinks they're superior because of their colour, ethnicity, nationality or race.
Do yourself a favour please and read about racism. It could be a massive eye-opener and make you a better person.

All done now. Managed to set the title length to 25 characters as a minimum (less than an average title length in the General category). If there are any hiccups, shoot me a message or post here, please.

Why is it even necessary to have a thread title “length” as in minimum number of letters/spaces ??

Partly it stops people posting thread titles that nobody is going to read. If somebody posts
Quote: A!
the odds you'll look are much lower than if they posted something you're interested in.
It also makes life a little harder on spammers.
