A thread can have a terrible topic but entail a worthwhile content
While some could have an attractive topic(that entices one to open them), but with terrible content
True, but a thread's title should give some indication as to whether you'd want to click on it or not.  I fully agree that thread-starters ought to be required to change thread titles if they're extremely vague.  I also find it annoying when a thread's title is something like "Hi" or "Bitcoin" (and I've seen threads with both titles recently).  It's basic forum etiquette that not everyone seems to grasp, and I would support having some sort of rule.

However, given all the other problems this forum is facing and the lack of action on a lot of them, this is probably not something that's going to get Theymos's attention.  

Edit:

Did you really have to quote the entire OP just to write your reply?  That's another breach of etiquette a lot of members seem to perpetrate.

As the old saying goes:Do not judge a book by its cover,your suggestion I'm afraid is not(never)gonna be implemented
Topics of threads do not determine the quality/usefulness of a thread..

A thread can have a terrible topic but entail a worthwhile content
While some could have an attractive topic(that entices one to open them), but with terrible content

And it only takes about a second to open a thread,and another to close the thread if you find it unhelpful

Some threads have titles that don't say anything about their content so users have to go inside these threads to understand what they're all about.
It's decrease effectiveness in generally and the topics with such names have a negative influence on the forum in my opinion.

I suppose it would be useful to add a new paragraph to the forum rules. Something like that:

Quote
It is forbidden to create new topics with titles that do not reflect the essence of the problem or question.

Examples of threads with meaningless titles:
What is going on?
What the hell is this?
